I see you stand aside and watch while they die
You're not dead you're not yet alive
You may have learned, may have learned how to survive
You may have learned how to thrive
You know everything has failed
No idea never fell like this
Your ideal never was meant to be
Well time runs out
The ground it waits to wake up
Waits to call out:
This war is a grave mistake
This war is a grave mistake
This war is a grave mistake
Follow this word how it grows
Follow these lies how it falls
Listen to these words I told
It’s like it’s all like
Like it's been before
I have been told to stand in line and watch
I've been told to stand in line and watch
How they march to destroy
How they march to destroy
I have been told meant to grow old
To have kids and a wife somewhere in paradise
I've been told to grow old
To have one last wish somewhere in paradise
Well I've been told to forget
What those people feel I can’t feel
What those people see I’ve foreseen
Well I've been told.
