Into The War Lyrics - Heideroosjes

Addicted to clean violence as seen on the t.v. screen 

Not a man but just a boy and he's looking mean 

Never seen a corpse, not knowing how it smells 

It's never you who dies it's always someone else 

Go into the war as if you play a football game 

You want to become a hero 

so that everybody knows your name 

You have to puke when you see the first rotten body 

But it won't take long cause destruction is all you'll see 

[Chorus] 

Into the war, strong as a man 

Than you want out as fast as you can 

But the door is locked, there's no way back 

Kill or be killed you have to attack 

What is it that you fuckin' fighting for? 

You just don't know cause you couldn't think anymore 

Your friends are tortured, killed in the front of your eyes 

It's not only friends, it's a piece of you that dies 

And one time you realize, you're just a fucking victim 

Nothing more than a puppet of a rotten system 

[Chorus] 

How many soldiers you have killed you just don't know 

All the mothers that will cry for the sons you blow 

Maybe he is just as old as you 

Maybe he likes punkrock and has a girlfriend too 

It is just a game with a deadly end 

In the end you don't know who's your enemy or friend 

The leaders they will talk but won't change a thing 

Total fuckin' madness is what war you will bring! 

[Chorus]
