A Farewell to Arms
Can you hear their cries?
Nowhere can the children run to hide
Crimson rivers flow down hills
Atone our ills
And woe to all her songs of love
A farewell to arms
Mutilated lives blackening as coffin line the sides
Filled with fathers, who has won
When only sons
Hold their grieving heads and mourn
A farewell to arms
Always our souls entwine
Erase this vast divide
Deaf ears our voices rest
Tyrant, this is protest
Who has won?
Yes, who has won?
I'll wave this flag of white
So the venged see the light
We'll pay for closed eyes with our genocide
Piercing the masquerade
March to the death parade
Trade not humanity
For pearls of the slavery
In the depth of mind the heart will find the truth of our leader
We'll try the facts so through the cracks
May fall the lying cheater
Who has won when we're all dead?
I'll wave this flag of white
So the venged see the light
We'll pay for closed eyes with our genocide
So is this how we live?
Or is this how we die?
Black blood dripping from platinum fangs
Rich blood flees while our poverty hangs
Shepherds they herd the mindless trance
As the flock follows the puppet's dance
In a fatal romance
All that they needed was a pretext, war's next
Heads to the chopping blocks, and our necks are next
For those who died
Who fought for our rights
Whose children now slaves
They're turning in their graves
War hawks and senators they sit tight, so trite
Never their sons will know what it's like to fight
But soldiers are dead
And children have bled
And the silence is numb
What have we become?
What have we become?
What have we become?
What have we become?
God save us
A farewell to arms
Nowhere can the children run to hide
Crimson rivers flow down hills
Atone our ills
And woe to all her songs of love
A farewell to arms
Mutilated lives blackening as coffin line the sides
Filled with fathers, who has won
When only sons
Hold their grieving heads and mourn
A farewell to arms
Always our souls entwine
Erase this vast divide
Deaf ears our voices rest
Tyrant, this is protest
Who has won?
Yes, who has won?
I'll wave this flag of white
So the venged see the light
We'll pay for closed eyes with our genocide
Piercing the masquerade
March to the death parade
Trade not humanity
For pearls of the slavery
In the depth of mind the heart will find the truth of our leader
We'll try the facts so through the cracks
May fall the lying cheater
Who has won when we're all dead?
I'll wave this flag of white
So the venged see the light
We'll pay for closed eyes with our genocide
So is this how we live?
Or is this how we die?
Black blood dripping from platinum fangs
Rich blood flees while our poverty hangs
Shepherds they herd the mindless trance
As the flock follows the puppet's dance
In a fatal romance
All that they needed was a pretext, war's next
Heads to the chopping blocks, and our necks are next
For those who died
Who fought for our rights
Whose children now slaves
They're turning in their graves
War hawks and senators they sit tight, so trite
Never their sons will know what it's like to fight
But soldiers are dead
And children have bled
And the silence is numb
What have we become?
What have we become?
What have we become?
What have we become?
God save us
A farewell to arms
