A Farewell To Arms Lyrics - Guided By Voices

Can you hear their cries? 

Nowhere can the children run to hide 

Crimson rivers 

Flow down the hills 

Atone our ills 

And woe to all her songs of love 

A farewell to arms 

Mutilated lives 

Blackening as coffin line the sides 

Filled with fathers 

Who has won? 

When only sons 

Hold their grieving heads and mourn

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

A farewell to arms 

Always our souls entwine 

Erase this vast divide 

Deaf ears our voices rest 

Tyrant, this is protest 

Who has won? 

Yes, who has won? 

[Chorus:] 

Ill wave this flag of white 

So the venged see the light 

Well pay for closed eyes 

With our genocide 

Piercing the masquerade 

March to the death parade 

Trade no humanity 

For pearls of the slavery 

Photos 

In the depth of mind the heart will I find 

The truth of our leader 

Well try the facts so through the cracks 

May fall the lying cheater 

Who has won when were all dead? 

[Chorus] 

So is this how we live? 

Or is this how we die? 

Black blood dripping from platinum fangs 

Rich blood flees while 

Our poverty hangs 

Shepherds they herd the mindless trance 

As the flock follows the puppets dance 

In a fatal romance 

[Solo: Demmel] 

All that they needed was 

A pretext, wars next 

Heads to the chopping blocks 

And our necks are next 

For those we died 

Who fought for our rights 

Whose children now slaves 

Theyre turning in their graves 

War hawks and senators 

They sit tight, so trite 

Never their sons will know 

What its like to fight 

But soldiers are dead 

And children have bled 

And the silence is numb 

What have we become? 

God save us 

A farewell to Arms
