Jade Steel & Emerald Triangle - War Songs Lyrics

They've tried to bury him before his time
Just needed one more special day
There are so many things that must be done
Before going upon his way
So young at heart with so many years
His chapter had just begun
Come war and dismay and he'd have to fight
He'd use music instead of a gun

War, there's no way to win it, war, it's so unforgiving
There's no solution can't you hear me singing? War songs

Fighting the storms and sailing the seas
Losing men in the sands of the East
Diamonds bleed red and water run's black
To the people they promise more peace
With the raping of queens and the pillaging
Can you hear the world calling your name?
Don't need your secret plans or your government
Don't want no a part of your war games

Coming with guns as they watch you run
As your heart it beats like a drum
There are too many wars with unsettled scores
While trying to be number one
So young at heart with so many years
A chapter had just begun
Come war and dismay and he'd have to fight
He'd use music instead of a gun

So many wars so many nations, we don't need no guns or bombs give us education
The price we pay is getting higher, for every life we take or gun we fire
