City of Destruction

Everyone's on the run cos everyone's got a gun.
There's a new life on a distant shore.
History moves in cycles like the wind and the rain.
We've eaten enough but we hunger for more.
The government laughs while the poor suffer and die.
How can they stand to live such a lie?
Fifty stars for nifty cars that you just can't buy.
Ride the bus or take a walk, sit at the back, get out of sight.

You don't know what I've been through!!!
But I think I'm just like you
We have all felt the pain!!!
Only some to go insane.
I can't even remember my name.
Red is the color of the day.

A broken city, broken walls.
People dying,destroyed purchase malls.
Why does the world say in the dark of the night,
That it's wrong to cry but it's right to fight?

Can't stop now, we've got to see more.
Peace now, how, when there's only the war.
I'm just a being trying to understand.
What the hell has happened to the animal called man?

Gotta get the hell out of here!!!
Oh yeah the answer is clear.
Got my fist to your head....lights.
Shining right through my eyes...bright.
You don't know (etc.)
Only some of you will remain.

Sons of God are crying, melting the earth with the sun.
And the creatures lay dying, the thing is that nobody won.
