[00:08] (Time Will Tell)
[00:12]
[00:13.04] An ancient battle
[00:15.26] In an ancient land
[00:17.57] Swept away with anger
[00:19.82] Through the streets, they ran
[00:22.13] Block to block
[00:24.38] House to house
[00:26.82] Man to man
[00:28.60] They fought hand to hand
[00:31.02]
[00:31.12] And war, begat war
[00:36.13] All on a distant shore
[00:39.63]
[00:40.78] Who are they?
[00:42.91] The people that they seek
[00:45.44] Innocent or guilty?
[00:47.56] For harm and injury
[00:50.01] Not the young
[00:52.38] Not the old
[00:54.53] It's hard to find
[00:56.84] The truth untold
[00:58.88]
[01:08.72] Crucify them, Crucify them!
[01:11.04] They did shout
[01:13.38] All would suffer
[01:15.41] There would be no doubt
[01:17.68]
[01:17.74] That war begat war
[01:22.59] All on a distant shore
[01:26.26]
[01:27.28] Hidden in the back
[01:29.57] Behind all their anger
[01:31.88] There stands greed
[01:34.07] And all that it needs
[01:36.57] Greed for the money
[01:38.76] Greed for the power
[01:41.19] Many will die
[01:43.44] For few to realize
[01:45.82]
[01:55.31] Mercy, mercy!
[01:57.51] The angels cried
[01:59.76] Remember the lies
[02:02.09] Of those who die
[02:04.25] Cause war begat war
[02:04.25]
[02:09.13] All on a distant shore
[02:13.23]
[03:28.39] Just because they say it
[03:30.57] Doesn't make it so
[03:32.94] Some day they'll see that
[03:35.19] Then they'll fight no more
[03:37.24]
[03:37.30] Cause war begat war
[03:44.63] War begat war
[03:51.69] On a distant shore
[03:57.34]
[03:57.44] Someday they'll see it
[04:02.13] And they'll fight no more
[04:05.13]
[04:07.74] Cause war begat war
[04:12.10]
[04:12.14] (Just because they say it)
[04:14.55] (Doesn't make it so)
[04:16.86] (Some day they'll see that)
[04:19.01] (Then they'll fight no more)
[04:21.05] Mmmmm (War begat war)
[04:29.92] Mmmmm
[04:39.50]
