"In War" lyrics

"In War"

You take what you get, what you really don't need
Next to a poor child whose feet won't stop bleed
My faith in humanity fades day by day alongside his fate
This poor childs dreams, now in oceans halls
You let it slide and yet you try behind your screens

Your screens

You've failed. You devour our kin
You've given them false hope now
Be someone to no-one, the importance of living now

In a far-away land, in my head and my dreams
I've seen this horizon and it's validly changed
Our faith in humanity fades and who the hell to blame?
Now sorrow speaks loud from oceans halls
Your let it slide and yet you try behind it all

Behind it all

You've failed. You devour our kin
You've given them false hope now
Be someone to no-one, it's always the same

In the storms, in the waves
The clouds are in haste. Betrayal
At the gates of our world
The child do suffer. Denial

We've been living too long to ignore
We've been striving too long in denial
We've been living our lives in our homes
We've been crossing the oceans and never looked down before

The source of our problems lies deep inside their heads
High powers affect the change but not to be welcomed
Their faith ignores the straight path of all science
The bullets fly through the air without getting noticed

They rape
They kill
To prove not to be cowards

They'll burn
They'll slit
Your throath in search of power

Denial
Betrayal
