"Why Die For A Lie" lyrics - PRETTY MAIDS

The architects of war
Has spoken once again
We must defend democracy
It's time for payback
To the once they call their friends
To please the weapon industries
And there you stand
Ready to die for freedom
Man a simple man
Dyin' for shady reasons ah yeah
You follow orders
Off you go to foreign shores
They call you to protect and serve
Licence to murder
On the right side of the law
The country's set on red alert
Kill kill or get killed
Nobody to hold on to
Hell everyday hell
Torture and hate surround you
Why die for a lie die in a war
Dyin' for something not worth dyin' for
Why die for a lie
The war is won
But still you fight on foreign fields
While everything around you dies
Cry inside you cry
Mentally hurt and shattered
Dead emotionally dead
Survival is all that matters
Why die for a lie die in a war
Dyin' for something not worth dyin' for
Why die for a lie
And when you're comin' home
You still hear the screamin'
You're sufferin' alone
You still feel the pain hey
Why die for a lie die in a war
Dyin' for something not worth dyin' for
Why die for a lie
Why die for a lie die in a war
War war war war war
Why die for a lie
War war war war war
