People Speak, The movie - Masters of War lyrics

rate me

Come you masters of war<br>

You that build the big guns<br>

You that build the death planes<br>

You that build all the bombs<br>

You that hide behind walls<br>

You that hide behind desks<br>

I just want you to know<br>

I can see through your masks<br>

<br>

You that never done nothin'<br>

But build to destroy<br>

You play with my world<br>

Like it's your little toy<br>

You put a gun in my hand<br>

And you hide from my eyes<br>

And you turn and run farther<br>

When the fast bullets fly<br>

<br>

Like Judas of old<br>

You lie and deceive<br>

A world war can be won<br>

You want me to believe<br>

But I see through your eyes<br>

And I see through your brain<br>

Like I see through the water<br>

That runs down my drain<br>

<br>

You fasten all the triggers<br>

For the others to fire<br>

Then you set back and watch<br>

While the death count gets higher<br>

You hide in your mansion<br>

While the young people's blood<br>

Flows out of their bodies<br>

And is buried in the mud<br>

<br>

You've thrown the worst fear<br>

That can ever be hurled<br>

Fear to bring children<br>

Into the world<br>

For threatening my baby<br>

Unborn and unnamed<br>

You ain't worth the blood<br>

That runs in your veins<br>

<br>

How much do I know<br>

To talk out of turn<br>

You might say that I'm young<br>

You might say I'm unlearned<br>

But there's one thing I know<br>

Though I'm younger than you<br>

That even Jesus would never<br>

Forgive what you do<br>

<br>

Let me ask you one question<br>

Is your money that good<br>

Will it buy you forgiveness<br>

Do you think that it could<br>

I think you will find<br>

When you death takes its toll<br>

All the money you made<br>

Won't ever buy back your soul<br>

<br>

Andl I hope that you die<br>

And your death will come soon<br>

I'll follow your casket<br>

On a pale afternoon<br>

And I'll watch while you're lowered<br>

Down to your deathbed<br>

And I'll stand over your grave<br>

'Til I'm sure that you're dead <br>

<br>
