heaven shall burn - bring the war home lyrics

Loading...

[verse]
i threw my useless life
into their wars and riots
for the ideal
to serve the ones i love
yes, all too soon
no recognition for
my pointless sacrifice
and far too late i saw

i left my home defenceless
this world’s a slaughterhouse
and men like me are not the butchers
i brought justice to no one
but there was no doubt
it always stands to reason
protect the just
conquer the felons
[pre-chorus]
returned
wounded and broken
but i never left these barren fields

[chorus]
and now i understand
there is no war to end all wars
take it from me
drowning your honest love
in mindless violence
i bring the war home
still raging within me

[verse]
all too soon
these children lost their fathers
and far too late i saw
that not for them i fought
the gods of profit
led me into
their battles

i never brought security
to those i wanted to protect
feeding the machine
and staining this world
with blood instead

[chorus]
and only now i understand
there is no war to end all wars
take it from me
drowning your honest love
in mindless violence
i bring the war home
still raging within me (2x)

[bridge]
take it from me
you’ll carry the war home
i brought justice
to no one

[pre-chorus]
now they spit me in the face
i did not recognize
the real offenders

[chorus]
and now i understand
there is no war to end all wars
take it from me
drowning your honest love
in mindless violence
i bring the war home
still raging within me

[outro}
we brought affliction to the m-sses
and splendour to a few
we are aggressors
not defenders (2x)
