Fire in the sky outta the blue and into the red depths
Time for you and i to try to fall asleep in the bed they've made us
All came crumbling down tears in our eyes as it rained confusion
The whole world has changed

But i don't understand how one can kill a man
In the name of peace, that's ridiculous

They say "eye for an eye," so they fire from the sky and they come outta nowhere
Time for you and i to turn on the big screen see what's happenin'
And as those children die, pawns in the game of collateral damage
The whole world goes mad

Standing here on quick sand, the more we fight we sink
And vengeance gives us hope, at least that's what we think
At least that's what we think 'cause

As we make amends by getting our revenge
We sort nothing, just add to the doubt
With god on both sides, if death is justified,
Whatever the name, then we're all to blame

So as those spirits fly (one, two, thee four...)
To honour those who've past
We got to get along
While the time still lasts

Bury the hatchet deep
So we all can weep
And heal all this pain, so
So we can live again, so
So we can live again 'cause

As we make amends by getting our revenge
We sort nothing out, just add to the doubt
With god on both sides, if death is justified
Whatever the name, then we're all to blame

But i don't understand how one can kill a man
In the name peace, that's ridiculous
But i understand that i will defend
My family from both sides of misery
