They camouflage the truth on your t.v With the pictures of the soldiers victory But they wont show the young man crouch and cry Screaming for salvation as they die
Chorus We can’t grasp the reality of war Another mass fatality, what for?
So the heads of state can slap each others backs Whilst families lie shellshocked from attack Compliments of the death corporations Architects of warfare and destruction
Backed up by the power of the riches greed The wrecked economies of the poor are left to bleed Just like the soldier who lies blooded in the street Theres no victory in war only defeat
As the dust settles with the smoke Blood filled lungs are causing some to choke Searching desperately around for life For their missing father, daughter, son or wife
Chorus
Heads of church, the peace organisation Stays quiet as unfolds annihilation Well in Zimbabwe and Sudan there still afraid I don’t see governments rushing to their aid
Could it be there’s no profit to be made? These peoples dreams of a refuge start to fade A brutal tyranny is a foundation of your war But I’m still wondering what the fuck its all for
