Running Wild - The War lyrics

[Music: Rolf Kasparek] [Lyrics: Rolf Kasparek] I wanna tell a story Of worldwar No. 1 How lies of "d**h or glory" Feeding on the gun "This is the war of intrigues This is the war of pain This is the 'One world order' Where every truth is slain" Empires on their hitlist Dreams of enslavery Crushing iron fist To see man on its knees [Pre:] A spiral that leads on to hell [Chorus:] The war, well it came with a lie The war, where the monarchy died The war, where the twisted eye reigned The war, falling to ideals insane In 1897 Secret agreement came The whole world to plunder In "Lucifer's" name Making up a conflict The "crown" was on the game Their "tank" was on the move now "Entente" was its name [Pre] [Chorus] A shot in Saraj**o Tactic of blatant lies This was a deadly co*ktail And common sense really died Gas into the fire The "shield" was flaming "red" The world became a pyre Widows, broken and sad [*] The war is a bundle of intrigues The war is still raging on The war, a creation of soulfreaks The war until they are gone [*] The war is a taste of hellfire The war is the downfall of man The war is the trade of the liar The war again and again [Repeat *] The war is the war is the war
