Are you certain
You've got your facts straight
It's been a long time
And the language may have changed
Are you certain
You trust your memory
From a time when we
Still believed in right and wrong.
Have you recorded all the casualties
All the strategies
Of this thirty-year war
I remember how the prisoners
Used to comfort me
Even as I locked the cells
I got the know them
Their eccentricities
Their family histories
And who it was they used to be
Back before all the casualties
All the strategies
Of this thirty-year war
What they don't know
Is that so long ago
I was a prisoner in this very cell
What they don't see is the part of me
That still wears the scars of criminality
They don't identify me
They don't identify me
They don't identify me
Anymore.
They don't identify me
They don't identify me
They don't identify me
Anymore.
I will not be another casualty
Of my very own
Thirty-year war
Don't identify me
They don't identify me
They don't identify me
Don't identify me
They don't identify me
They don't identify me
Anymore.
