Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The ocean
Is on fire
The sky turned dark again
As the boats came in
And the beaches
Stretched out with soliders
With their arms and guns
It has just begun
[Verse 2]
Believe
Do you want this?
Believe
I want this too
[Verse 3]
Why won't you tell me
That it's almost over?
Why must this tear my head
Inside out?
[Verse 4]
And their houses
Laid out like targets
With the deafening sound
We watched them all go down
And the families
Now useless bodies
They lay still, black and blue
A gift from us to you
[Verse 5]
Believe
Do you want this?
Believe
Do I want this too?
[Verse 6]
Why won't you tell me
That it's almost over?
Why must this tear my head
Inside out?
[Verse 7]
Believe
Believe
Do you want this too?
[Verse 8]
Why won't you tell me
That it's almost over?
Why must this tear my head
Inside out?
[Verse 9]
Why won't you tell me
That it's almost over?
Why must this tear my head
Inside out?
