You think you're strong enough To kill another man, You think you know all about war From the TV screen. You grow in confidence With the cold touch of your gun, You saw it in your dreams you being brave enough. You know this day will come you'll taste a foreign ground, Dry sand will blow in your eyes Every breath could be your last. Somewhere on barren land With an open shotgun wound, You will find the way in your life With the wisdom of hindsight. Your face, fake smile, your grief, won't die. Set your face against decay Our life is marked by grief and pain Hearts go wild with no end in sight. You think this world is made Only for sturdy men, You won't shed any tears Over dying weak-kneed kings. Every day you say a prayer With close wall around your heart, You must do it for yourself Find the space in your inside. In the fortress of your life No-one can cross the line, It's hard to live without Love and intimate stuff. When you create your cage In the vacuum of your life, You deny happiness To you and someone else. Your face, fake smile, your grief, won't die. Set your face against decay Our life is marked by grief and pain Hearts go wild with no end in sight.
