Oh, angel of war, what am I fighting for? |
|
If death comes tomorrow, inform me before |
|
Inform me before |
|
Oh, young soldier boy, I'll tell you what I know |
|
If peace is your wish, to battle you must go |
|
To battle you must go |
|
Oh, angel of war, please, make it clear to me |
|
Which is my side and who is my enemy? |
|
Who is my enemy? |
|
Oh, angel of war, within myself I see |
|
Battle has started, what will become of me? |
|
What will become of me? |
|
Oh, young soldier boy, you're wiser than you seem |
|
Look into your heart and keep your motives clean |
|
And keep your motives clean |
|
Oh, angel of war, what weapons do I need? |
|
Lest I may perish, that I may succeed |
|
That I may succeed |
|
Oh, young soldier boy, if you protect the poor |
|
Let truth be your armour and justice be your sword |
|
And justice be your sword |
|
Oh, young soldier boy, the war that you wage |
|
If it's for your ego, it will die in rage |
|
It will die in rage |
|
Oh, angel of war, how can I tell for sure |
|
Pride's not the reason that I'm fighting for |
|
That I'm fighting for |
|
Oh, angel of war, when I look at me |
|
I'm fearful to confess, the enemy I see |
|
The enemy I see |
|
Oh, young soldier boy, now you can go to war |
|
I'll see you tomorrow and a boy you'll be no more |
|
A boy you'll be no more |
