From corruption of the soul, but oh

A weapon falls from the sky

Yeah we've seen it all before

Buildings live and people die

War weary world

They've learned to live to fight

Love rebuilds a man

Em C
It's a time of strange teaching
Em C
Hear the moanings of regret
Em C
From the schools of revolution
Em C
The stages have been set
Em
Oh, but listen
Em C Em
It seems wars are meant to happen
C Em
And pain is meant to be
C Em
But if hope is eternal
C B
Then a hiding place for you and me
[Chorus]
D A
Have you heard the reasons why?
B
Yeah we've heard it all before

But have you seen the nation cry?
