Once upon a War şarkı sözleri

A woman taken from home To appease the warlords' thirst The children give themselves up What must be done to save their own innocence? Innocents! Why do we fight, no one wins So sad now, I see you go An eye for an eye, kith for kin What must be done to forgive and to forget I loved you as if you were my own A bloodstained prize A gallon per ounce You think you are never wrong Human error and pride One another, grieved in hate, our sons will feel our sins Nothing changes on earth's sodden ground I loved you as if you were my own No one knows you as I, having seen you at your worst An inner coward and thief You'd snatch a purse to drink to your neighbor in the dirt You think you are never wrong Human error and pride One another, grieved in pain, our sons will feel our sins Nothing changes on earth's sodden ground You think you are never wrong Human error and pride One another, meant to suffer, our sons will feel our sins Nothing changes on earth's sodden ground As we lived we will meet our end
