Cry For War
They burst in the skies
Like radiant May flowers
They bring no joy
Only death and despair
Death unto death
We're dancing in their skeletons
A prophet of war
Profiteering from distraction
Sick children call for mom
But they'll never hear her call
The clock will strike midnight
And an ignorant generation is lost
Actors turned politicians
The greatest dealers of death
Do you still cry for war
Knowing it will end us all
