Wasted
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's all gone quiet in the city tonight
(It's been a lot of trouble there)
People are walking the streets
(Their praying for each other and)
It's not much fun now that the lights are gone
(It's another wandering)
I wonder what this all means
(We should blame it all on the government)
It's a human breakdown
And we've all been hurt
Wasted like soldiers caught in the crossfire
All in the name of religion
People are watching on the TV screens
Nobody knows all the answers
Who do we trust while we're in between
The preaches that promised the chances
It's a human breakdown
And we've all get hurt
Wasted like soldiers caught in the crossfire
All in the name of religion
Taken like strangers helplessly sacrificed
Pray that their souls will be forgiven
In a world full of profits
It doesn't matter who talks about it
When it comes to decisions
Is this a matter of things gone unheard
It's a human breakdown
And we've all been hurt
Wasted like soldiers caught in the crossfire
All in the name of religion
Taken like strangers helplessly sacrificed
Pray that their souls will be forgiven
