Lyrics for Death Of War by Hawkwind:
| | | Artist: | Hawkwind |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Death Of War | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 79 | | | | Lyrics: | (Brock Rowntree)
Ebbing eyesight in chlorine clouds
stealing away barbed wire
shrouds
mowed down in mud by machine gun fire
trapped and strangled in barbed
wire
silent nights smashed as big guns fill bodies full of shrapnel
in their crusade to
kill
Far away, politicians, glasses of port
meet in a toast to a war they've not
fought
Holy fire directed and idly discussed
manufacturing hatred, engineering
distrust
trading clarity for confusion,
the ruthless powerlust.
Only one thing in common
do leaders share
with those on the battlefield fallen down everywhere
and that is their
wine, has good body and it is red
draining away forever like the blood of those dead. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
