There's a dark heart parked out in your destiny Ready to whisk you off from where you long to be The heat and fear inside you burn needlessly There's a bad road laid out and I wonder do we really see There are old men pushing young ones where they don't need to be There's a dark heart growing from an evil seed A young face is cold and told to rest in peace Families that wait back home get news of tragedy But then you pop right up and say These kids must go and do what's right You give your orders all day How do you lay your head down and sleep at night But all the arm chair warriors are the bravest 'Cause they don't go and fight Are we falling Into the traps of a war Falling toward what is wrong Reaching beyond what we have learned To touch the souls of those now gone There's a dark heart moving throughout this world of ours Pushed on through time by greed and a lust for power What once was need is now uncontrolled desire But all the hot shot leaders handing orders out Will never take advice Because the pockets of the rich Are being filled each time another soldier dies
