Pearl Jam Masters of War (acoustic) Lyrics

Come you masters of war
you that build all the guns
You that build the death place
you that build all the guns

You that hide behind walls
you that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks

You that never done nothing
but to build and destroy
You play with my world
like its your little toy

You put a drug in my head
then you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run
following the fast foolish lie

Like Judas of old
you lie and deceive
A world war can be won
you won't need to believe

But I see through your eyes
and I see through your brain
Like I see through the water
that runs down my drain

You that fasten all the triggers
for the others to fire
Then you sit back and watch
while the death count gets higher

You hide in your mansion,
while young people's blood
Flows out their bodies
and is buried in the mud

You've thrown the worst fear
that could ever be hurled
The fear to bring children
into this world

For threatenin' my baby
unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood
that runs in your veins

How much do I know
to talk out of turn?
You might say that I'm young
you might say I'm unlearned

But there's one thing I know
though I'm younger than you
Even Jesus would never
forgive what you do

Let me ask you one question
is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness?
Do you think that it could?

Oh, I think you will find
when your death takes its toll
All the money you made
will never buy back your soul

And I hope that you die
and your death will come soon
I'll follow your casket
in the pale afternoon

And I'll watch as your lowered
into your deathbed
And I'll stand on your grave till
I'm sure that your dead
