Fortunes of War

The damage done to all these places
Is quite unbelievable
You never have seen such pain
Walking through the bombed cities

A cancerous civilization
Fed on its own body
Which is never healing yet
But somehow not quite dying

You never ever could win a war
That's what you have to learn
Here everybody is a loser
You will get nothing in return

Thousands of men died on both sides
And this is the greatest loss
The cities can be build up again
But there is no hope for all these men

Civilian targets were also bombed
So wives and children died as well
We destroy our own future
How could you say you won a war

You never ever could win a war
That's what you have to learn
Here everybody is a loser
You will get nothing in return
