Lyrics
I was listening for echoes
In the drumbeat of a firefight
Asking how we became inhumane
The elemental story
That resonates through history
Is that humans have always been the same
Oh no! We know, we've improved our power to amplify
Oh no! We know, we will use that power to kill and die
I was watching the light beams
As they flashed across the TV screens
Thinking that our World had gone insane
Memories of my teenage years
Of conflict zones and children's tears
Depressed that this was happening again
Oh no! We know, we've improved our power to amplify
Oh no! We know, we will use that power to kill and die
In the voice of propaganda
There's a rhetoric of failure
The distorting of the stories, no surprise
But project to global media
All those different images
Impossible to tell the truth from lies
Oh no! We know, we've improved our power to amplify
Oh no! We know, we will use that power to kill and die
I was listening for echoes
In the silence of a genocide
The footsteps of the fast approaching men
The elemental story
A rhythm of humanity
Peace won by the missiles that we send
Oh no! We know, we've improved our power to amplify
Oh no! We know, we will use that power to kill and die
