To Never Again

war is a-ragin' don't you understand
cause a rich man son took the world in his hands
he said “this here is mine, to do with as i please
get out of my way or fall to your knees”

he took the whole world and swallowed it down
and it burned in his stomach 'til there was no one around
sent him all alone in the naked wide
crying to jesus “where is my life?”

i hope to never again
have to cope with this darkness, my friend

people they say there's no peace without war
and what would you do if they came to your door
we've gotta kill them all now and make sure that we've won
before given any thought to the things we have done
