All Our Sins

I speak from a place where some talk of signs
 Tired superstitions to drown out the wise
 Dark clouds have gathered to block out the sun
 All of our sins to judge us in turn
 Mothers and daughters, fathers and sons
 Would any be counted to take up the cause?
 If we can't imagine that the hour is near
 Then all of our sins won't fade with the tears
 Do you hear the drums of the warmonger's charge
 Who feeds on the blood of our youngest and brave
 Throw oil on the fires, turn friend against friend
 All of our sins consume us in flame
 I hope you know, I hope you can see
 The march is beginning all over again
 Will we ever learn? Will we ever know peace,
 Before all of our sins drag us to the deep?
 Can you not see them? There's blood on their hands
 They rape and they murder for pleasure and gain
 The harbingers comes in blazes of gold
 With fear and destruction a haven for none
 What would it take to force us to act?
 Before visions have faded and hope is worn out
 Would we strive to be better? Could we learn from the past?
 For all of our sins - atonement at last
 For the sake of our conscience, for the sake of our souls
 To never more suffer peace without end
 Or will be pass silent into the great night?
 When all of our sins will lie with the dust
 ♪
 Tell me their names, tell me their names
 Look into their eyes and what do you see?
 Do you see their pain and look blindly away?
 Do you hear their voices? Do you hear their screams?
 And do you not suffer? Do you know no shame?
 All those around you would banish you away
 I hope that their cries haunt you till the end
 All of your sins, you can't wash away
 For the sake of our conscience, for the sake of our souls
 To never more suffer peace without end
 Or will be pass silent into the great night?
 When all of our sins will lie with the dust
 For the sake of our conscience, for the sake of our souls
 To never more suffer peace without end
