Civil War - Guns N' Roses
Look at your young men fighting Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying The way they've always done before
Look at the hate we're breeding Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading The way we've always done before
My hands are tied The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide And history hides the lies of our civil wars
D'you wear a black armband when they shot the man
Who said "Peace could last forever"
And in my first memories they shot Kennedy
I went numb when I learned to see
so I never fell for Vietnam
We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all that you can't trust freedom
When it's not in your hands when everybody's fightin’ For their promised land And
* I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
You're power hungry sellin' soldier In a human grocery store Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war
Look at the shoes you're filling Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing The way we've always done before
Look in the doubt we've wallowed Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the lies we've swallowed And I don't want to hear no more
My hands are tied For all I've seen has changed my mind
But still the wars go on and the years go by
With no love of God or human rights 'cause all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide And history bears the scars of our civil wars
( * )
I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war
You're power hungry sellin' soldier In a human grocery store Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war
I don't need one more war
