We sent them all   Across the ocean   Many lives   Were taken   But I didn't cry   I didn't know them   And I just looked on    With no expression      This land   Was once a home   Of friends and family   We used to know   They are all gone now   They are now gone   And for what    I cannot tell      Put down your banners and flags   This war you've made won't last   And your country's just lines on a map   They're drawn up, they don't last      Paper cities burning   The ashes fell like rain   And when the fire was over   Everything had changed      People come together   Reminds us we're the same      Put down your banners and flags   This war you've made won't last   And your country's just lines on a map   They're drawn up, they don't last
