All he wanted was to start a war
In the fields where people dream no more
Courageous as you came
They dare not speak his name

And when you don't know what you're fighting for
They say he's ending lives and counting scores
You know that you alone can't stop the God of War

The more you sweat in peace the less you bleed
Is what he promised you but now you see
There's no white flag for you
And everything to lose

And when you don't know what you're fighting for
They say he's ending lives and counting scores
You know that you alone can't stop the God of War

Let the river run
I'll let the people see
What he has done

Let the river run
I'll let the people see
What he has done

Let the river run
I'll let the people see
What he has done

We pray his end will come
We fight until we're done

And when you don't know what you're fighting for
They say he's ending lives and counting scores
You know that you alone can't stop the God of War
You know that you alone can't stop the God of War
