The nations rage and yet they're falling apart Their walls and weapons won't conquer the heart
And the fathers and sons, are carrying guns They cover the earth like a flood They labor in vain, for an end to the pain But freedom was purchased in blood And the blind lead the blind further away
Each man pursues the dream that's calling his name Each man's desire is fanning the flame
And the fathers and sons, are carrying guns They cover the earth like a flood They labor in vain, for an end to the pain But freedom was purchased in blood And the blind lead the blind further away
They cry for rights and titles, still they won't kneel And so the wound refuses to heal
And the fathers and sons, are carrying guns They cover the earth like a flood They labor in vain, for an end to the pain But freedom was purchased in blood And the blind lead the blind Always they're striving but never arriving in time
