The politicians are lying
The bullets start flying
This is the price of war

Rivalries form
Hatred is born
This is the price of war

Kids are hiding
Adults are fighting
This is the price of war

Souls are chilled
People are killed
This is the price of war

Women are crying
Their children are dying
This is the price of war

Hearts are rotten
Hope is forgotten
This is the price of war

The guns are firing
Soldiers are tiring
This is the price of war

Innocents are killed
Blood has been spilled
This is the price of war

The ground is dyed red
Thousands lie dead
This is the price of war

The graves are filled
Lives to rebuild
This is the price of war

Bombs are dropped
The fighting has stopped
Is it worth the price of war?

Orphans were made
Memories fade
This is the price of peace
