A Farewell To Arms Lyrics

Machine Head

Can you hear their cries? Nowhere the children run to hide Crimson rivers flow down hills, atone our ills And woe to all her songs of love
A farewell to arms
Mutilated lives blackening as coffin line the sides Filled with fathers Who has won when only sons Who hold their grieving heads and mourn
A farewell to arms
Always our souls entwine Erase this vast divide Deaf ears our voices rest Tyrant, this is protest
Who has won? Yes, who has won?
I'll wave this flag of white So the avenged see the light We'll pay for closed eyes Before genocide
Pissing the masquerade March to death parade Trade not humanity For pearls of the slavery
In the depth of mind the heart will find The truth of our leaders We'll try the facts so through the cracks May fall the lying cheater
Who has won when we're all dead?
I'll wave this flag of white So the avenged see the light We'll pay for closed eyes Before genocide
So is this how we live? Or is this how we die?
Black blood dripping from platinum fangs Rich blood flees while Our poverty hangs, oh
Oh, shepherds, they herd the mindless trance As the flock follows the puppet's dance In a fatal romance
Oh, all that they needed was A pretext, war's next Heads to the chopping blocks And our necks are next
For those who died Who fought for our rights Whose children now slaves They're turning in their graves
Oh, war hawks and senators They sit right so trite Never their sons will know What it's like to fight
Soldiers are dead And children have bled And the silence is numb What have we become?
What have we become? What have we become? What have we become? God save us
A farewell to arms
