How do you grow up, child of war?
When you learn that people disappear so fast
In a world where lives end in a flash
How will you grow up child of war?
Where is your hope, child of war?
Where can you find hope child of war?
What you see today, may be gone tomorrow
Mercy's a stranger when you only know sorrow
Where can you find hope, child of war?
What do you see through those eyes?
What do you see through those eyes?
Blood for blood, limb for limb
When there's no way out vengeance wins
What do you see through those eyes?
Who is there to feed you when you're father's gone?
Who is there to feed you when you're father's gone?
You have to learn to steal and learn to run
Can't look back at who you're stealing from
Who is there to feed you when you're father's gone?
Why does a child strap on a bomb?
Why does a child pick up a gun?
Does he picture glory in a future grey?
Is he used and abandoned in a game that replays
Why does a child strap on a bomb?
How do you grow up, child of war? How do you grow up, child of war? When you learn that people disappear so fast In a world where lives end in a flash How will you grow up child of war?
