Father can you tell me the reason Of all this hate Mother by the window is waitin' for me Will I see the dawn of one more day Cry, cry alone in the darkness How many friends left behind Tonight will be my only friend Tonight I'll be alone again Just look around you Tell me what do you see People who die for a cause of insanity Unknown soldier tell me why did you die In some far away land scared and alone Fire cross fire no cause is worth dyin' for Fire, cross fire the general calls for more Oh, killin' you like a lamb To the slaughter you go Kills only you a pawn in this power game Tell me why Youth must be sent to die By old men who sit at home Someday for this they must pay, they must pay Year after year Time will pass you by Unknown soldier in some forgotten grave Fire cross fire took you away No one remembers your face or name.
