Civil War

Look at your young men fighting<br /> Look at your women crying<br /> Look at your young men dying<br /> The way they`ve always done before<br /> <br /> Look at the hate we`re breeding<br /> Look at the fear we`re feeding<br /> Look at the lives we`re leading<br /> The way we`ve always done before<br /> <br /> My hands are tied<br /> The billions shift from side to side<br /> And the wars go on with brainwashed pride<br /> For the love of God and our human rights<br /> And all these things are swept aside<br /> By bloody hands time can`t deny<br /> And are washed away by your genocide<br /> And history hides the lies of our civil wars<br /> <br /> D`you wear a black armband<br /> When they shot the man<br /> Who said "Peace could last forever"<br /> And in my first memories<br /> They shot Kennedy<br /> I went numb when I learned to see<br /> So I never fell for Vietnam<br /> We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all<br /> That you can`t trust freedom<br /> When it`s not in your hands<br /> When everybody`s fightin`<br /> For their promised land<br /> <br /> And<br /> I don`t need your civil war<br /> It feeds the rich while it buries the poor<br /> Your power hungry sellin` soldiers<br /> In a human grocery store<br /> Ain`t that fresh<br /> I don`t need your civil war<br /> <br /> Look at the shoes your filling<br /> Look at the blood we`re spilling<br /> Look at the world we`re killing<br /> The way we`ve always done before<br /> Look in the doubt we`ve wallowed<br /> Look at the leaders we`ve followed<br /> Look at the lies we`ve swallowed<br /> And I don`t want to hear no more<br /> <br /> My hands are tied<br /> For all I`ve seen has changed my mind<br /> But still the wars go on as the years go by<br /> With no love of God or human rights<br /> `Cause all these dreams are swept aside<br /> By bloody hands of the hypnotized<br /> Who carry the cross of homicide<br /> And history bears the scars of our civil wars<br /> <br /> "We practice selective annihilation of mayors<br /> And government officials<br /> For example to create a vacuum<br /> Then we fill that vacuum<br /> As popular war advances<br /> Peace is closer"<br /> <br /> <br /> I don`t need your civil war<br /> It feeds the rich while it buries the poor<br /> Your power hungry sellin` soldiers<br /> In a human grocery store<br /> Ain`t that fresh<br /> And I don`t need your civil war<br /> I don`t need your civil war<br /> I don`t need your civil war<br /> Your power hungry sellin` soldiers<br /> In a human grocery store<br /> Ain`t that fresh<br /> I don`t need your civil war<br /> I don`t need one more war<br /> <br /> <br /> I don`t need one more war<br /> Whaz so civil `bout war anyway
