Stone By Stone

And the walls came tumbling down. Do you have the faith to march to battle Raise your sword and strike the enemy down Tread through snow with feet bleeding Hunger pains while crawling under Death's shadow Sleepless nights and soul searching War is hell the anguish screams in killing Burning days in scorching deserts All to keep a point to hold Disease mocks your very existence Limbs are torn away Drowning in swampy waters Spears with bloody tips a glazed Stone by stone you tear away Stone by stone fortress made Stone by stone piles a quick grave The jackals belly full of human flesh The body rots as vultures dish Strike a blow with sword in hand Combat man to man If you win a hero's creed Lose begets death as life bleeds Why is it that so many young die Behind shutter gates the elders survive Deciding fate for profits sake The more war the more money to make Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall But the same people always rule us all Did Joshua kill all evil as God command Or did he allow some to live and bring down man The world drowning in sin So it begin so it ends
