We sent them all across the ocean
 Many lives were taken
 Well I didn't cry, I didn't know them
 And I just looked on with no expression

 Put down your banners and flowers
 This war you've made won't last
 Your country, just lines on a map
 They're drawn up, they don't last

 The paper cities burning
 The ashes fell like rain
 But when the fire was over
 Everything had changed

 The people come together
 Reminds us we're the same

 Put down banners and flowers
 This war you've made won't last
 Your country, just lines on a map
 They're' drawn up, but they don't last
