Roland Grapow

I saw strange friends dying in vain
Dressed in blood red robes
Only id-tags will remain
Nobody asks why they fought
Now Im standing here not alone
In the middle of the battlefeild
The smell of blood still in my nose
But my eyes cant see enemies
Its hard to understand
Why do we kill each other, friend
When I look into your eyes I see myself and cry
[Chorus:]
Why do our children cry for us
When we children kill
And women rape, without any hate
Cause they tell us: "Dig your grave"
He softly whispers
They tells us this war is right
We must kill each other on this night
Slaughter friends like animals
There is no way back from hell
It still angers me when they tell us
Were the only who have that right
Is it luck, a chance or fate
That we stand here still alive
Its hard to understand
Why should I shoot you, friend
When I look into your eyes I see myself and cry
