People have round shoulders 
From fairing heavy loads 
And the soldiers liberate them 
Laying mines along their roads 
Sorrow paid for valor 
Is too much to recall 
Of the countless corpses piled up 
Along the wailing wall 

Melting down all metals 
Turning plows and shears to swords 
Shun words of the Bible 
We need implements of war 
Chalklines and red puddles 
Of those who have been slain 
Destiny, that crooked schemer, 
Says the dead shall rise again 

Where do we go from here? 
And should we really care? 
The end is finally here, 
God have mercy! 

Now we've rewritten history 
The one thing we've found out 
Sweet taste of vindication 
It turns to ashes in your mouth 

Where do we go from here? 
And should we really care? 
The end is finally here, 
God have mercy! 

If you're fighting to live 
It's O.K. to die! 
The answer to your question is... 
Welcome to tomorrow! 

Where do we go from here? 
God have mercy! 

Where do we go from here? 
And should we really care? 
The end is finally here, 
God have mercy!
