Never Again Lyrics

The way we watch the fires burning

Through TV screens we sit and watch

As children cry, their pained faces

Beg U.N. soldiers for sheltering spaces

Can we do anything? Are we even trying

To stop all the hated, the killing and the dying?

We look to the past for lessons learned well

And the present slips into the same hell

Remember we're told, and never forget

Do not let it happen again

The way the world just sat on the side

When millions were tortured and died

For tonight's entertainment the news anchors gleam

(Ethnic cleansing is easier if you use Mr.Clean)

Now back to the action, the rape and the dead

While ancient feuds fuel a future I dread

Remember we're told, and never forget

Do not let it happen again

The way the world just sat on the side

When millions were tortured and died

Watching bombed out bodies face down in the mud

Drawing cease-fire lines with their blood

Soldiers killing children, it is the killing season

Acting human, only humans kill without reason

While diseased rats and flea infested dogs

Blind bats and sweat-less hogs

Who know better than we, they frown at our deeds

And pray for the day when we're all fucking dead

Remember we're told, and never forget

Do not let it happen again

The way the world just sat on the side

When millions were tortured and died

Remember we're told, and never forget

Do not let it happen again

The way the world just sat on the side

When millions were tortured and died
