Sirens filled the air and the ground shook with war
civilian casualties had been a cost that was predetermined
When interviewed for report victims plead in frustration
their claim that this was a war without a reason
And bureaucrats engaged in debate to try to reach a resolution
The people sing protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun
Protest songs in response to military aggression
Protest songs try and stop the soldier's gun
The battle Raged On...
Protest songs in response to military aggression
Protest songs try and stop the soldier's gun
The battle Raged On...

Protest songs try and stop the soldier's gun
