it's sad so sad the war came home tonight
the evil sent poor men there to fight

1
and unleashed beasts were on their way as well
no use here for the truth no more
no rowing boats to sunny shores

2
and where my grandma used to live there's just a black hole now
i think i never will forgive
and i once was a good man
now all that's left is hate
is it to late
how can i be
i cannot be the man i want to be

1
i'm standing here a gun prepared to shoot
it does not feel alright but there is nothing else i could do tonight

1
this is so wrong but makes me feel so strong
today i could not care much less that no-one here would ever guess

2
what my vocation would have been
and what once was a home for me is just a pile of grey debris
i want to be a good man
now all that's left is madness of a war
that is not mine
i cannot be the man i want to be

it's sad so sad
the war came home tonight
they're throwing bombs on children's homes
we're killing just because we want to be

1
as free and happy as can be
but who begrudges us
the bathing belles on sandy beaches finding shells

2
is just a mad man sitting there
on his throne so much too tall
to talk to anyone at all
and i don't want to hear those lies
and it just makes me close my eyes
and be
oh can i be
yes i will be the man i want to be
