Cruel sun

We've been sent to justify
Relieve the nation of its cries
Blameless mention must begin
The chosen few of wars to end

I call it a cruel sun
It lightens the world so bold
If it's wrong then it mustn't be us

Tomorrow, we may never see
A sacrifice that same must be
As we fight our Father's wars
We don't know what we're dying for

I call it a cruel sun
It lightens the world so bold
If it's wrong then it mustn't be us
It's a shame that it ended up this way
When the day is up
They'll know that we'll have won

When will they call us
And then, what will we do
When will they call us
And then, what will we do

If I'm gonna die
God, I pray, we'll ride
If I'm gonna die
God, I pray, we'll ride
If I'm gonna die
God, I pray, we'll ride

I call it a cruel sun
It lightens the world so bold
If it's wrong then it mustn't be us
It's a shame that it ended up this way
When the day is up
They'll know that we'll have won
