Intro:
Verse:
The sky has no end tonight
Clear view beyond the stars
Daylight in the early dawn
There s no-one left unscarred
Sand is drying up the tears
Burnt shells soaking up the sun
The generals laughing
With no fear
Because their work is done
Verse:
Liquid gold was in their sights
Paid with blood by infantry
Giant statues ripped and torn
All engineered so brilliantly
Back home it s the Wild West
Children sleeping in their beds
Grown men
That passed the test
Now free to go and wed
Verse:
They tell us it s O-K to kill
They re just vermin in the sand
Don t worry bout the blood you spill
You ll be forgiven by God s hand
Images etched behind their eyes
Will never fade away
Eternal buildings turned to dust
In just one day
