Children Of The Revolution |
Children of the revolution coming out to play |
Bombers ripped the night apart and blew the school away |
Some live on the south side and they overlook the water |
Some live on the north side and they’re looking at the border |
And those children of the revolution see the soldiers come |
Smiling at the widows as they take away the sons |
Children of the revolution shot down with a brand new gun |
They’re dropping down like flies and in their eyes |
The images of war are in their eyes |
They’ve seen it all before and know your lies |
Won’t keep their bellies full |
In love and war there are no rules |
Children of the revolution getting off the boat |
To face the ignorance and prejudice that keep this land afloat |
Children of the revolution make a brand new start |
Running through the rubble of a thousand broken hearts and in their eyes |
All promises are broken in their eyes |
The words that can’t be spoken and your lies |
Don’t keep their bellies full |
In love and war there are no rules |
But in their eyes |
Murder comes by sea and from the skies |
It’s shiny and it’s quick to take their lives |
And if it’s cruel in love and war there are no rules |
Children of the revolution coming out to play |
Someone sells a gun and someone blows them all away |
Children of the revolution sold out by the banks |
Who swap the green upon the dollars for the green upon the tanks |
Children of the revolution shot down by a brand new gun |
