Tell You A Thing
That You Ought To Know
Two Minutes Of Your Time
Then On You Go

Tell Tale Of The Men
All Dressed In Black
That Most Of Them
Not Coming Back

Sent Off To War
To Play Little Games
And On Their Return
Can't Name No Names

Some Strange Yellow Gas
Has Played With Their Minds
Has Reddened Their Eyes
Removed All The Lies

And Strange As It Sounds
Death Knows No Bounds
How Many Get Well
Only Time Will Tell
Only Time Will Tell

You Lie In Your
Death Bed Now
But What Did You
Bring To The Table?
Brought Us
Only Holy Sin
Utter Trust Is
A Deadly Thing

To The Prayer Of Holy Peace
We Didn't Know What
Was Lying Underneath
So How Could We Be Such Fools?
And To Think That We
Thought You The Answer

I Can't Begin To Understand
In All The Lies
But On Your Death Bed
I Can See It In Your Eyes

Just As Clear As All
The Sweat Upon Your Brow
It Really Makes Sense
I Can See It Clearly Now

Tangled Up
In A Web Of Lies
Could Have Been
A Way To Prophesize

Unaware Of The Consequence
Not Aware Of The Secrets
That You Kept

Nothing That
We Could Believe
To Reveal The Façade
Of Faceless Men

Not A Thing That
We Could Foresee
Now A Sign That Would
Tell Us The Outcome

You Had Us All
Strung Out With
Promises Of Peace
But All Along
Your Cover Plan
Was To Deceive

Can It Put To Rights?
Now Only Time Will Tell
Your Prophecies
Will Send Us All
To Hell As Well

Left To All Our Golden Sons
All To Pick Up On The Peace
You Could Have Given All Of Them
A Little Chance At Least

Take The World
To A Better Place
Given Them All
Just A Little Hope
Just Think What A Legacy
You Now Will Leave

[[[SolO]]]

We Seem Destined
To Live In Fear
And Some That Would
Say Armageddon Is Near
But Where There's
A Life While There's Hope
That Man Won't Self Destruct

Why Can't We Treat
Our Fellow Men
With More Respect
And A Shake Of Their Hands?
But Anger And Loathing Is Rife
The Death On All Sides
Is Becoming A Way Of Life

We Live In An Uncertain World
Fear, Understanding
And Ignorance
Is Leading To Death

Only The Corpses
Are Left For Vultures
That Prey On Their Bones

But Some Are Just
Not Wanting Peace
Their Whole Life
Is Death And Misery

The Only Thing
That They Know
Fight Fire With Fire
Life Is Cheap

But If They Do Stop To Think
That Man Is Teetering
Right On The Brink
But Do You Think Do They Care?
They Benefit From Death
And Pain And Despair.
