Prisoners of War

Simple Tools
Language: English




prisoners of war
what the hell ya fighting for
can we see the path down which we're led
do we trade our soul
to keep ourselves under control
with loaded expectations to our heads

does your blood run cold
any time the hot wind blows
can you smell that sickening decay
there is no rusty cage
we're captivated by that raging fire
we burn to keep the wolves at bay

prisoners of war
what the hell ya fighting for
can we face the truth
eye for eye and tooth for tooth
makes us dumb and blind
seek the light or we will find
ourselves forevermore
prisoners of war

pay a bloody buck
for another shiny hook
in someone's back beneath another blazing sun
watch them pull your plow
count those blue chips while we tell them how
they're lucky to be the chosen ones

til the day we pass
beyond our broken looking glass
we'll fail to see our sisters and our brothers
no intelligent design
can ever let us find
salvation in the suffering of another

prisoners of war
what the hell we fighting for
crazy from the heat
marching to that angry beat
of drummers with broken souls
we can chase them down the hole
or declare a truce before we're all condemned
prisoners of war
