P.o.d. - Tell Me Why lyrics

rate me

A day with no glory

A heart filled with fear

Still repeating his-story to make ourselves clear

A voice is unheard when it shouts from the hills

Your king in his castle never died on these fields

There's blood on you hands

A smile on your face

A wicked intention when there's money to be made

A room with no windows and a heart that can't feel

Shame with no convictions and a view to a kill.

Tell me why?

Why must we fight?

And why must we kill in the name of what we think is right?

No more! no war!

Cause how do you know?

The hate in your eyes

The lies on your tongue

A hand that kills the innocent

So quick to do wrong

Your belly is full while we fight for what remains

The rich getting richer while the poor become slaves

We kill our own brothers

The truth is never told

If victory is freedom then the truth is untold

Surrender your soul just like everyone else

If love is my religion, don't speak for myself

How do you know?

I'm living this life

I'm given these lies

And how can i die for the name of what you think is right?

No more! oh lord!

How do we know?
