With a beautiful bomb
And guns with bullets sent from God
His bones are made of steel
His heart must surely be made of gold
For the sacrifice he was ready to make.

Yet fails to notice the damage caused
By his beliefs.
He wants a better world, a better place to live.

Did he not know his history?
As it often repeats itself.
But some people are still blind
They won't wake up
To see what has happened.

Two European nations damaged by their actions.
In today's goodbye
we are introduced to where it all began.

He tries to save his country
With a beautiful bomb
And guns with bullets sent from God
His bones are made of steel
His heart must surely be made of gold
For the sacrifice he was ready to make.

Yet fails to notice the damage caused
By his beliefs.
He wants a better world, a better place to live.

Did he not know his history?
As it often repeats itself.
But some people are still blind
They won't wake up
To see what has happened.

Two European nations damaged by their actions.
In today's goodbye
we are introduced to where it all began.
