IRON MAIDEN - Childhood's End lyrics

rate me

I'd sail across the ocean

I'd walk a hundred miles

If I could make it to the end

Oh just to see a smile

You see it in their faces

The sadness in their tears

The desperation and the anger

Madness and the fear

No hopeno lifejust pain and fear

No foodno lovejust greed is here

Starvation and the hunger

The suffering and the pain

The agonies of all - out war

When will it come again

The struggle for the power

A tyrant strikes again

Just what the hell is going on

When will it ever end

No hopeno lifejust pain and fear

No foodno lovejust greed is here

You see the full moon float

You watch the red sun rise

We take these things for granted

But somewhere someones dying

Contaminated waters

Pollution and decay

Just waitng for disease to stike

Oh will we learn someday?

No hopeno lifejust pain and fear

No foodno loveno seed

Childhood's end
