Why do all the children die
Why do all the children cry
Why are rivers turning red
What's a cause worth when you're dead
What's the thirst for power for
How can one be evil's whore
What's the price of living free
Rules made by one we can't see
Children, die
Children, cry
Ain't no war, just lies
Follow me silently
Final peace denied
When will our blood be suffice
When will your heart melt to ice
How long will we stand forsaken
While our futile lives are taken
What's the thirst for power for
How can one be evil's whore
What's the price of living free
Rules made by one we can't see
Children, die
Children, cry
Ain't no war, just lies
Follow me silently
Final peace denied
Children, die
Children, cry
Ain't no war, just lies
Follow me silently
Final peace denied
Children, die
Children, cry
Ain't no war, just lies
Follow me silently
Final peace denied
Children, die
Children, cry
Ain't no war, just lies
Follow me silently
Final peace denied
Why do all the children cry
Why are rivers turning red
What's a cause worth when you're dead
What's the thirst for power for
How can one be evil's whore
What's the price of living free
Rules made by one we can't see
Children, die
Children, cry
Ain't no war, just lies
Follow me silently
Final peace denied
When will our blood be suffice
When will your heart melt to ice
How long will we stand forsaken
While our futile lives are taken
What's the thirst for power for
How can one be evil's whore
What's the price of living free
Rules made by one we can't see
Children, die
Children, cry
Ain't no war, just lies
Follow me silently
Final peace denied
Children, die
Children, cry
Ain't no war, just lies
Follow me silently
Final peace denied
Children, die
Children, cry
Ain't no war, just lies
Follow me silently
Final peace denied
Children, die
Children, cry
Ain't no war, just lies
Follow me silently
Final peace denied
