Prisoner of war, prisoner of love, there's a torch to my head
|
crimes of passion, crimes of youth, stop the ringing in my head
|
born again, not born at all, the future is full of smoke
|
born to lead, the need to think, I grab my lungs and I choke
|
|
What we take for granted can be taken away and then you ask for more you're still dropping bombs from a plane that went down in the civil war drive the nails, drive them hard, peace turns to war again crown of thorns, crown of peace, political battleship
|
|
Crimes against humanity, the dogs are closing in
|
And when the kingdom comes, it will bring it to an end
|
Tell me you believe
|
|
Let's crown another beauty queen, do you find it so obscene
|
what about the homeless, the starving, the poor,
|
no room for the sick cause the rich want more
|
they lied to us, they lied to them,
|
breaks my heart inside
|
took their hope, stole their love,
|
no life left in their eyes
|
|
I stand on this hill and I scream your name
|
It's something they've tried to erase
|
Some say nothing lasts forever
|
We all run the risk of being lost
|
Some hold on and some never thought to believe
|
|
We've got to have bigger guns, we've got to find higher suns
|
one day you'll see the truth that you've been running from
|
tell me you believe, I still believe,
|
I believe in love it's all that we have left
|
