Prisoner of war, prisoner of love
There's a torch to my head
Crimes of passion, got crimes of youth
Stop the ringing in my head
Born again and not born at all
Future is full of smoke
Born to lead and the need to think
I grab my lungs and I c-c-choke
What we take for granted can be taken away
Then you'll ask for more
You're still dropping bombs from a plane
Went down in the civil war
Drive the nails, yeah, drive them hard
Peace turns to war again
Crown of thorns and the crown of peace
Political battleship
Crimes against humanity, the dogs are closing in
And when the kingdom comes, it will bring it to an end
Tell me you believe
Let's crown another beauty queen
Do you find it is so obscene
What about the homeless, the starving, the poor
No room for the sick, 'cause the rich want more
Lied to us and they lied to them
Breaks my heart inside
Took their hope and they stole their love
No life left in their eyes
Crimes against humanity, the dogs are closing in
And when the kingdom comes, it will bring it to an end
Tell me you believe
Tell me you believe
I stand on this hill and I scream your name, yeah
It's something they tried to erase
Some say "Nothing lasts forever
We all run the risk of being lost"
Some hold on and some never thought to believe
We've gotta have bigger guns
Gotta find higher suns
One day you'll see the truth that you've been running from
We've gotta have bigger guns
Gotta find higher suns
One day you'll see the truth that you've been running from
Tell me you believe
Yeah, I believe in love
Yeah, I believe
It's all that we have left
