One Strike Left

Though Everyone Knows
The little girl looks sad she's on the run a burning house is left of what she used to call her home a helicopter flies into the blood-red sun it's fire brought some peace to foreign soil, so why you ask soldiers rushing in, the world police to serve and to protect at least the worthwhile fields of oil the mission's a success, the threat's subdued dictatorship is dead, so long live dictatorship you cannot tell, the reasons why throwing bombs, gunning down means to bring some peace to town just close your eyes, it won't be real and still they just keep on telling lies, pretend to save our world i'm sick of hearing only alibis propagandistic shows, to make us all believe to hide the truth, to blind our eyes though everyone knows money, oil, next year's votes more worth than human lives money, oil, next year's votes much more worth than human lives they promise her a world, where she'd be free comfort her with things she'd not desired all her life someday the tears will dry and maybe she'll forget but her eyes like broken glass will stay until she dies her mother's dead, the daddy's caught tortured and forced to show secrets that he didn't know Songtextejust close your eyes, it won't be real and still they just keep on telling lies, pretend to save our world i'm sick of hearing only alibis propagandistic shows, to make us all believe to hide the truth, to blind our eyes though everyone knows it's all to conceal, what are your aims another war involves another deal that's how it goes, the public will forget and you can play your dirty games though everyone knows everyone knows they will forget and you can play your dirty games we will forget and you can play your dirty games instead Aus Songtexte Mania
