Lament for America
America land of the free
What has become of you and I
All innocents is lost
The days of dreams that last forever
Now have past America
And all the papers read today
Another star has passed away
From self inflicted wounds
I guess I'll never understand
Why all our heroes have to die
Before the world hears the tears they cry
America land of the strong
I know we've done you wrong
We rape your soil
We've stollen all your pride
And hung it out to dry America
And still we go on living
Never ever even changing
For the good of mankind
And with the blood shed of a million slaves
Still we never stop to wonder why
We never even heard the tears they cry
How many people must die?
How many children must cry?
How long do we have to suffer
Before we open up our eyes?
How many bombs must we explode?
How many guns must we unload?
How long must we live with war
Before we learn to let our fear and hatred go?
What has become of you and I
All innocents is lost
The days of dreams that last forever
Now have past America
And all the papers read today
Another star has passed away
From self inflicted wounds
I guess I'll never understand
Why all our heroes have to die
Before the world hears the tears they cry
America land of the strong
I know we've done you wrong
We rape your soil
We've stollen all your pride
And hung it out to dry America
And still we go on living
Never ever even changing
For the good of mankind
And with the blood shed of a million slaves
Still we never stop to wonder why
We never even heard the tears they cry
How many people must die?
How many children must cry?
How long do we have to suffer
Before we open up our eyes?
How many bombs must we explode?
How many guns must we unload?
How long must we live with war
Before we learn to let our fear and hatred go?
