What's The Cost?/Price to Pay

Another fight, another dead

Another reason for bloodshed

Another loss, another gain

Another reason for more pain

Another wasted life, another fucking war

Another group of selfish acts, always waiting more

Never wanting peace, never wanting answers

Always adding more chaos, making world cancer



A world that now rests in bed

Time’s run out to get the med.

No one’s loss is no one’s gain

No one left to feel the pain

Billion wasted lives, nuclear war

All the violence exceeding far beyond the core

Finally there’s peace, but what’s the price to pay

Nation’s leaders still want more, from beyond the grave



No more looks, no more stares

No more crying, “life’s not fair”

No more tax money going towards warfare

Thought u could be the man, thought u’d take a stand

But all they did was look away, as if they didn’t care

Forefathers laugh away to what we have to say

Now you honestly tell me, what’s the price to pay
