The final battle we've engaged
The civilised war is waged
Fighting and killing to gain respect
Striving to beat the next
"Oh, Why can't we?"

War is declared, All life will die
Fire rains down from the sky
More to learn, there is still time
Is there still hope for mankind

We're no different, we let it go on
Who's got the money the bomb
Thousands plagued by hunger and disease
We turn away feed our needs
"Oh, Why won't we"

Man lost in a world of greed
Drowning in money
The world lost through the greed of man
Suffering at who's hand?
What time is left?
Can we stop this?
As tensions climb the stakes get higher again

Closer and closer reason slips away
Holocaust threatens us us everyday
The push of the button, Millions will die
The biggest gun wins, None will survive
In a world of chemicals we are destined to end
Through the greed of man our world descends

[Solos: Riccardo/Sterge]

War is declared, All life will die
Fire rains down from the sky
More to learn, there is still time
Is there still hope for mankind

Desert plains, a baron land
Destruction caused only by man
Is that what we have to look forward to?
What can you do?
"Oh, Why don't we?"
