Your prophecies will send us all to hell as well
Nothing that we could believe
You had us all strung out with promises of peace
We didn't know what was lying underneath
To the prayer of holy peace
Could have been a way to prophesize
But on your death bed, I can see it in your eyes
Not a thing that we could foresee
Fear, understanding and ignorance
Only time will tell
Left to all our golden sons
Some strange yellow gas
Is leading to death
Unaware of the consequence
You know will leave
With more respect and a shake of their hands?
All to pick up on the peace
For vultures that prey on their bones
I can't begin to understand in all the lies
Tell tale of the men, all dressed in black
Just as clear as all the sweat upon your brow
Tangled up in a web of lies
Just think what a legacy
Fight fire with fire, life is cheap
But some are just not wanting peace
Has reddened their eyes, removed all the lies
The only thing that they know
So how could we be such fools?
But what did you bring to the table?
Not aware of the secrets that you kept
We live in an uncertain world
It really makes sense, I can see it clearly now
Their whole life is death and misery
And some that would say Armageddon is near
That most of them, not coming back
Brought us only holy sin
Why can't we treat our fellow men
Only the corpses are left
Utter trust is a deadly thing
You lie in your death bed now
And on their return, can't name no names
Given them all just a little hope
You could have given all of them
A little chance at least
But where there's a life while there's hope
That man is teetering right on the brink
Has played with their minds
Can it put to rights? Now only time will tell
But all along your cover plan was to deceive
But anger and loathing is rife
And strange as it sounds, death knows no bounds
Sent off to war to play little games
Take the world to a better place
The death on all sides is becoming a way of life
And to thing that we thought you the answer
But do you think do they care?
To reveal the facade of faceless men
How many get well, only time will tell
That man won't self destruct
We seem destined to live in fear
Now a sign that would tell us the outcome
But if they do stop to think
