There was a day when as a child, Your head was filled with dreams so wild, With life a game you used to play, Did you leave your dreams in yesterday, Remember fields where flowers grew, Remember trees and rivers too, Were their beauty lost on you, My pretty one. They say that, the way back to peace Must be through war, I say that no way can I believe you anymore.
The politician rears his head, Like cattle to the slaughter lead, Did he hear what he just said, Does he ever stop to count the dead, Enemies are all he needs, Living off the hate he feeds, God save the rich, while the poor bleed, A soldier dies but no one cries.
You say that, I say that there's only living, There's only dead, You know that, I know that, Crazy circles are in my head.
(Solo)
There was a day when you and me, Were masters of our destiny, But life is cruel and fate will twist, When a soldier fights your politics, With no one left for guns to kill. No more Nations heads to fill, Nothing left for you to say, Tomorrow was the price you paid.
You say that, I say that there's only living There's only dead, You know that I know that Crazy Circles are in my head.
