The Story To Tell Your Children Lyrics - Singles - Full Scale

Smell the bodies burning 

As the ash it fills your lungs 

You know there's nothing we're learning 

That the history books haven't begun 

You say "It's human nature" 

Well I say "It's no part of mine" 

You say you fight for the future 

I say you've just begun the decline 

Shame on you for trusting the weaker one 

You're feeling small so go pick up a gun 

Shame on you for trusting the weaker one 

You're god is small, he's nothing 

Shame on you for trusting the stronger one 

You're feeling small so go pick up a gun 

Shame on you for trusting the stronger one 

Your god is tall, he's something 

Put me in my place 

When all the bodies lie burning, what will be left of you? 

When one god slays/saves another, who's decision was it? 

Who's decision was it? 

You'll need a story to tell your children
