A Farewell to Arms

Can you hear their cries?

Nowhere the children run to hide

Crimson rivers flow down hills, atone our ills

And woe to all her songs of love

A farewell to arms

Mutilated lives blackening as coffin line the sides

Filled with fathers

Who has won when only sons

Who hold their grieving heads and mourn

A farewell to arms

Always our souls entwine

Erase this vast divide

Deaf ears our voices rest

Tyrant, this is protest

Who has won?

Yes, who has won?

I'll wave this flag of white

So the avenged see the light

We'll pay for closed eyes

Before genocide

Pissing the masquerade

March to death parade

Trade not humanity

For pearls of the slavery

In the depth of mind the heart will find

The truth of our leaders

We'll try the facts so through the cracks

May fall the lying cheater

Who has won when we're all dead?

I'll wave this flag of white

So the avenged see the light

We'll pay for closed eyes

Before genocide

So is this how we live?

Or is this how we die?

Black blood dripping from platinum fangs

Rich blood flees while

Our poverty hangs, oh

Oh, shepherds, they herd the mindless trance

As the flock follows the puppet's dance

In a fatal romance

Oh, all that they needed was

A pretext, war's next

Heads to the chopping blocks

And our necks are next

For those who died

Who fought for our rights

Whose children now slaves

They're turning in their graves

Oh, war hawks and senators

They sit right so trite

Never their sons will know

What it's like to fight

Soldiers are dead

And children have bled

And the silence is numb

What have we become?

What have we become?

What have we become?

What have we become?

God save us

A farewell to arms
