"Cruel Sun" lyrics - ALTER BRIDGE
We've been sent to justify
Relieve the nation of its crimes
Blameless mission must begin
The chosen few of wars to win
[Chorus:]
A cold and a cruel sun
Enlightens a world so bold
If it's wrong then it mustn't be us
Tomorrow, we may never see
A sacrifice they say must be
As we fight our father's wars
We don't know what we're dying for
[Chorus:]
A cold and a cruel sun
Enlightens a world so bold
If it's wrong then it mustn't be us
It's a shame that it ended up this way
But when the day is done
Then no one will have won
[Bridge:]
When will they call us
And then, what will we do
When will they call us
And then, what will we do
If I'm gonna die
God, I pray we're right
If I'm gonna die
God, I pray we're right
If I'm gonna die
God, I pray we're right
[Chorus:]
A cold and a cruel sun
Enlightens a world so bold
If it's wrong then it mustn't be us
It's a shame that it ended up this way
But when the day is done
Then no one will have won
