Youth Against Wars Lyrics

In the halls of power where decisions are made

Older men declare wars with hearts unswayed

But on the front lines where the bullets fly

It's the youth who fight and too often die

A world painted with the colors of strife

Caught in the crossfire of an elder's life

They draw the lines set the stage

Yet it's the youth who go bleed

Oh the youth,

Brave and bold

Stories of courage forever untold

In the battlefield where shadows loom high

Older men declare wars but it's the youth that sigh

Dreams of tomorrow shattered by the war

Young hearts beating shaken to the heat, core

They bear the weight of a world at odds

As the older men sit and play the gods

A canvas painted with the hues of despair

The youth march on their burdens to bear

In the echoes of gunfire a silent cry

Older men declare wars but it's the youth that ask why

Oh the youth with innocence lost

Paying the price no matter the cost

In the tapestry of conflict where tears are nigh

Older men declare wars but it's the youth that try

But let us dream of a world reborn

Where swords are sheathed and peace is sworn

A future shaped by hands not scarred

A narrative changed not marred

As the sun sets on battlefields wide

The youth dream of a peaceful tide

Older men may sow the seeds of strife

But it's the youth who carry the promise of life

A symphony played in the key of hope

Where the youth find a way to cope

In the dance...

A symphony played in the key of hope

Where the youth find a way to cope

In the dance of existence under the sky

Older men declare wars but it's the youth that defy

Oh the youth with resilience strong

Singing a different harmonious song

In the face of adversity under the same sky

Older men declare wars but it's the youth that rise

So let the anthem of unity soar

A chorus of voices asking for more

In the tapestry of time where destinies tie

Older men declare wars but it's the youth that stand
