They wanted so bad to be leaders so they could lead us all to hell
And we just let them lead on we even thought they did it well
Ten thousand years of torture and war we let them blow the horn

And we killed our friends and brothers on the fields and on the shore

We plundered the sea and plundered the plain we even let the rain go sour
And no matter how much we let them have, still they wanted more
They wanted their names in history we should remember them a thousand years
You can be sure we'll write their names down but it will never repay the tears

The shattered lives of millions with greed to lead the way

And we just let them carry on till they could blow us all away
They wanted so bad to be leaders so they could lead us all to hell
And we just let them lead on we even thought they did it well
