Winds of War

You can see it in the faces
Of people everywhere
Fear, desperation and pain
The curse of ancient enemies
Passed from father to son
With the blood of hatred
Running through their veins
Look into the eyes of shattered souls
Lives destroyed by war
Images are burned into your brain
For the peace that we crave
And the questions we raise
The answers will stay
Hidden by the winds of war
Give praise to the father
Singing hail to the chief
Young warriors marching
To meet their destiny
We know that some will die
But who will cry for the children?
Over land and water
Hail rains down from the sky
Praise sons and daughters
But fate decides to live or die
We try to justify
But who will cry for the children?
Raise your head to the heavens and you pray
Make the images of war go away
For the solace we need
For the hearts that still bleed
It's hidden in the winds of war
If the answer is there
For peace everywhere
It's hidden in the winds of war
The winds of war
Hidden by the winds of war
The winds of war
In the name of God above
Look what we've done
In our lust for enemy blood
We've blown it all to kingdom come
A holy sacrifice
But no one cries for the children
Raise your head to the heavens and you pray
Make the images of war go away
For the solace we need
For the hearts that still bleed
It's hidden in the winds of war
If the answer is there
For peace everywhere
It's hidden in the winds of war
Winds of war
Winds of war
Winds of war
Winds of war
Winds of war
Winds of war
Winds of war
