People Speak, The movie - Masters of War lyrics
rate meCome 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>
