Arranged by Sagacious Past

Lyrics by Brian Madariaga

The Apocalypse

Land in the east
Where battles were fought
Soldiers went to war
They didn't want to fight
Who would be the best
Trials to begin
Never allowed to rest
This is the face of sin

The first shot was fired
And war began
The blood stains stretched
Out across the sand
Of men who had given
All of their lives
Abandoned thier children
And lost their wives

Why

Help us, Help us, Who wants to fight
Help us, Help us, Find out what's right
Help us, Help us, Its a losing game
Help us, Help us, We'll die in vain

Before the died
They begged to be saved
From the endless tears
That pave the way
Why do we fight
To enhance our souls
To destroy the rich
To keep us bold

Soldiers fight for glory
Politicians use their greed
Negotiate for money
And weapons no one needs
Leaders form committees
To help strategies move faster
Armies used as puppets
Animated by their masters

Soldiers bodies
Shipped across the sea
Of men who died
Of peace and liberty
No one knew they had gone to war
No one really knew
What they were fighting for

Help us, Help us, Who wants to fight
Help us, Help us, Find out what's right
Help us, Help us, Its a losing game
Help us, Help us, We'll die in vain
