Fortunes Of War

The damage done to all these places

Is quite unbelievable

You have never seen such pain

Walking through the bombed cities

A cancerous civilisation

Fed on its own body

Which is never healing yet

But somehow not quite dying

You never ever could win a war

That's what you have to learn

Here everybody is a loser

You will get nothing in return

Thousands of men died on both sides

And this is the greatest loss

The cities can be bulit up again

But there is no hope for all these men

Civilian targets were also bombed

So wives and children died as well

We destroy our own future

How could you say you won a war

You never ever could win a war

That's what you have to learn

Here everybody is a loser

You will get nothing in return
