Your ivory tower, so safe and secure, keeps you in control
The strategies work, the casualties minimal
 
The charts and the maps with the figures of losses and overviews
don't tell you the story of those who have died
 
So tell me who's fighting this unholy war ?
And who is to die ?
 
So faceless and nameless the thousands of men sent into their fate
And what will you tell to their children and wives ?
 
Like lambs to the slaughter led into their death, blown to kingdom come
with promises given of instant martyrdom

So tell me who's fighting this unholy war ?
And who is to die ?
 
Who's crying ? Who sheds a tear ?
Who feels the pain of life taken away ?
Who's dying ? Who's sacrificed ?
Who gave his life in the name of your "god"?

 
So tell me who's fighting this unholy war ?
And who is to die ?
So tell me who's fighting this unholy war ?
And who is to die ?
