Look at the past repeating it's self
Young men fighting
Women crying
People dyeing
An endless circle
Fed by fear,
The sea may bleed
The heavens may cry
And the Earth may tremble
But we turn a blind eye,
We don't want to see the world we're killing
The lives we are swallowing
The blood we are spilling
The way we've always done it before,
Our human rights are swept away by genocide
And our wars go on because of brainwashed pride,
We have a cross of homicide
That is held up high by oily hands of the hypnotized
The past repeats itself time after time
And what does that teach us?
That we can't trust freedom if it is not in our hands,
They killed the man that said "Peace could last forever"
Because there is no such thing
When everyone's fighting for the promise land;
We might as well shut up and bite our tongues
Because life's no fun when we know we are going to die young
Just send dead flowers to the soldiers so they know what's to come
Look at the past repeating itself
Every cop is a criminal
Every saint is a sinner
The people in the world just don't know any better
So
Young men are fighting
Women are crying
People are dyeing
An endless war is feuding
And all it does is feed the rich
While burying the poor.
