For centuries and centuries
I walked along their battlefields
Rotten flesh and burned soil
Is all what they have leftA strange desire for destruction
Can be felt at all these places
An awful waste of resources
All for their killing machineryA world all made of battlefields
A world all drowned in blood
A world which will not last forever
Is all that we have gotA world all made of battlefields
A world all built for wars
And now we take the battlefields
Far out to the starsThey get better year by year
With a frightening efficiency
Killing thousands in one strike
By pushing just one buttonSo I have been everywhere
From the jungle to the mountain
And even in the deepest sea
I saw the signs of a past war
