A LIFETIME OF WAR:
(BY SABATON - ALBUM: CAROLUS REX); Two ways to view the world
So similar at times
-
Two ways to rule the world
To justify their crimes
By kings and queens young men
Are sent to die in war
Their propaganda speaks
Those words been heard before
-
Two ways to view the world
Brought Europe down in flames
Two ways to rule
-
Has man gone insane?
A few will remain
Who’ll find a way
To live one more day
Through decades of war
It spreads like disease,
There’s no sign of peace
Religion and creed
Cause millions to bleed
Three decades of war
-
From dawn to dawn they’re fighting,
Die where they stand
The fog of war lies thick
When armies scorch the land.
When all of Europe’s burning
What can be done?
They’ve been to war a decade,
Two more to come
-
Long way from home
Döpas och dö I strid
Lifetime at war
-
Has man gone insane?
A few will remain
Who’ll find a way
To live one more day
Through decades of war.
It spreads like disease,
There’s no sign of peace.
Religion and creed
Cause millions to bleed.
Three decades of war.
-
When they face death they’re all alike
No right or wrong, rich or poor
No matter who they served before
Good or bad, they’re all the same
Rest side by side now
