No One Wins

They’re dropping bombs out of the sky
They’re sending planes, I don’t know why
Fighting wars, so many die
It’s all such a sin
They say it’s peace they’re fighting for
But I see boots outside my door
Another name, another war
Where do we begin?

Don’t you see it
No one wins
We have to stop it
No one wins

World wars, Korea and Vietnam
Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan
Ukraine, Gaza and foreign lands
When’s it gonna end?
America, Russia, and Israel
This whole thing’s run by imbeciles
It’s time to break the rules
We need to start again

Don’t you see it
No one wins
We have to stop it
No one wins
No one wins

They feed us lies on every screen
They wave their flags — they’re so obscene
They keep us numb and split between
The left and right pretend
They build their castles out of gold
We watch our futures bought and sold
It’s getting tired, it’s getting old
It’s time for this to end

Don’t you see it
No one wins
We have to stop it
No one wins
Don’t you see it
No one wins
We have to end it
No one wins
