Lyrics for Shades of War

Burial of a human being A man before a boy Born to fight in another man's world Not a world where there's war Born religiously Truth is what they see Death won't come from peace Who fuels this war? Sacred ground of life Burnt remains of the dead Bodies lay to rest Spirits of the earth Rancid man, burned alive Too blind to see what's wrong from right, locked inside this cage So many times blood has poured, walk with shadows Hear the shades of war forever more Brought into this world of bitter pain Are we safe or just insane Rancid man, burned alive Too blind to see what's wrong from right, darkness veils their way So many times blood has poured, walk with shadows Hear the shades of war forever more Buried in your sleep [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible] Death won't come from peace Who fuels this war?
