[00:20.271] Why all these bugles crying
[00:23.521] For squads of young men drilled
[00:27.025] To kill and to be killed
[00:31.520] And waiting by this train?
[00:35.771] Why the orders loud and hoarse
[00:39.520] Why the engine's groaning cough
[00:43.521] As it strains to drag us off
[00:48.021] Into the holocaust?
[00:51.521] Why crowds who sing and cry
[00:56.271] And shout and fling us flowers
[01:00.020] And trade their right for ours
[01:03.521] To murder and to die?
[01:07.271] The dove has torn her wings
[01:10.020] So no more songs of love
[01:16.021] We are not here to sing
[01:19.271] We're here to kill the dove
[01:26.021] Why has this moment come
[01:29.271] When childhood has to die
[01:33.522] When hope shrinks to a sigh
[01:37.521] And speech into a drum?
[01:42.021] Why are they pale and still
[01:45.770] Young boys trained overnight
[01:50.271] Conscripts forced to fight
[01:53.770] And dressed in gray to kill?
[01:57.521] These rain clouds massing tight
[02:02.270] This train load battle bound
[02:05.770] This moving burial ground sent
[02:10.022] Thundering toward the night
[02:14.021] The dove has torn her wings
[02:17.021] So no more songs of love
[02:23.021] We are not here to sing
[02:25.521] We're here to kill the dove
[02:33.270] Why statues towering brave
[02:40.020] Above the last defeat
[02:41.020] Old word and lies repeat
[02:45.020] Across the new made grave?
[02:49.770] Why the same still birth
[02:52.770] That victory always brought
[02:56.770] These hoards of glory bought
[03:00.770] By men with mouths of earth?
[03:05.520] Dead ash without a spark
[03:09.520] Where cities glittered bright
[03:13.520] For guns probe every light
[03:16.770] And crush it in the dark
[03:21.020] The dove has torn her wings
[03:24.521] So no more songs of love
[03:30.520] We are not here to sing
[03:33.270] We're here to kill the dove
[03:41.271] And why your face undone
[03:45.770] With jagged lines of tears
[03:49.271] That gave in those first years
[03:53.521] All peace I ever won?
[03:57.770] Your body in the gloom
[04:01.521] The platform fading back
[04:05.770] Your shadow on the track
[04:10.021] A flower on a tomb
[04:14.520] And why these days ahead
[04:18.520] When I must let you cry
[04:22.023] And live prepared to die
[04:26.020] As if our love were dead?
[04:30.521] The dove has torn her wings
[04:33.270] So no more songs of love
[04:40.521] We are not here to sing
[04:44.021] We're here to kill the dove
