FIRE FROM THE SKY
Fire from the sky
falls like the pouring rain
Falling from planes
so high they aren't heard or seen
Dropping their bombs
on people they can't even see
Dropping their bombs
in the name of democracy
Fire falling from the sky
Where did we go wrong?
It's the pride before the fall
It's the weakness of the strong
Fire from the sky...
Fanning the flames
of hatred and violence
Striking in fear
or striking out in arrogance
The actions of fools
with the weapons of the cowardly
Lashing out blind
out of sight is out of mind
Fire falling from the sky
Where did we go wrong?
It's the pride before the fall
It's the weakness of the strong
Fire from the sky...
We don't want to see
we don't even want to know
They don't want to say
everything they really know
Making up lies
to justify every shame
Anything goes
if you do it in democracy's name
Fire falling from the sky
Where did we go wrong?
It's the pride before the fall
It's the weakness of the strong
Fire from the sky...
Sending those kids
out to die for political gain
The Masters Of War
take the glory but they never take the blame
One of these days
those chickens will be coming home to roost
Bringing those bombs
back here where we turned them loose
Then we will know
how it feels to be on the other end
Then we will know
that war is nobody's friend
Fire falling from the sky
Where did we go wrong?
It's the pride before the fall
It's the weakness of the strong
Fire from the sky...
