It’s not enough,
To just strike back,
It’s not enough,
To hear spines crack,
And babies scream
And soldiers die,
It’s not enough,
Just to let it lie,
To let great men
Forfeit their lives
For bitter memories
As each man strives
To cut his name
Into history's trunk,
To
Let the big city burning
Begin the war again
In the city of god,
There was already thunder,
The fortress went down,
As the country went under,
It wasn’t enough
To let it lie
It wasn’t enough
To let 3 thousand die,
You can’t fill the hole,
That that day will leave
(no) Matter how many die,
No matter how many grieve,
So strive for peace
And hope for the right
As
The big city burning
Begins the war again
