Orders given from on high
Men in suits safe and dry
Sending others to the fight
Innocence lost in the night
Useless war blood for lies
Decided by those who never die
In the trenches we ask why
Living just to say goodbye
Fields of sorrow skies of pain
Countless lives all in vain
Leaders safe behind their walls
While the common soldier falls
Useless war blood for lies
Decided by those who never die
In the trenches we ask why
Living just to say goodbye
Voices silenced dreams destroyed
In the chaos hearts devoid
Fighting battles not our own
In the end we're all alone
We're all alone
Families broken futures bled
All for power tears are shed
On the frontlines truth is clear
Those who rule won't come near
Useless war blood for lies
Decided by those who never die
In the trenches we ask why
Living just to say goodbye
Goodbye
