Lyrics Joseph Arthur

Joseph Arthur

Machines Of War

Now I'm leaving to fly in a warplane

Hitler's coming and he is a madman

I'll be back though so care for our children

Tell them Daddy has left to protect them now

On a mission the sky is a blood field

On a mission you see what our bones yield

Raining bodies, the jet planes are falling

I gotta go now the army is calling me

Time is a jet away

Wish you would lock the door

See how our children play

We are machines of war

You copy you paste you lose

Love couldn't make me stay

I couldn't love you more

Just watch how our children play

We are machines of war

The factory will give me my job back

If I make it out of a casket

If I make it I hope you'll be waiting

With the kids and the love never fading out

When you wake please give them a kiss now

When you wake them please tell them i miss them

And when i'm gone please show them my picture

They are so young I hope they remember me

Time is a jet away

Wish I could give you more

See how our children play

We are machines of war

Love couldn't make me stay

I couldn't love you more

Just watch how our children play

We are machines of war
