Magna Charter
Write the rules for the games we play Carved in stone for a future time Broken pieces thrown away Broken pieces that are mine
Hope in words so nearly true Peaceful times are long unseen Promises I give to you Only I know what they mean
Charter for a freedom lost Made by man who knows not why Leaving youth to count the cost They only suffer times gone by
It would never be the same If ruler lived beyond his past He would have to live his game And speed of truth is never fast
Should there ever be a charter With words to change the course of man To give us peace and hope and understanding And take us back to where it all began
The sword is still the only answer The loudest sound that can be heard The scream of silence as the fear grows stronger Hear the people Cry to no-one No-one hears their words
And so Time moves on A war Waged in words With Kings and Church and common man But no winner Or beginner Can understand the battle plan
But the battle never lasts long Even though it is an old song And the singer never sings the same old Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Turn the melody to war chant Change the flowers into warplants Kill them all Just to swell the purse
Pray to the Father Peace ever after Only love Up above Glory to the war
So for peace we wage a war As in war we fight for peace Death to all, be rich or poor Comes in such a bloody feast
Will they meet in a future time? Will it happen yet again? Only God knows the truth they say Only He is ahead of our time
Where is the charter made for love? Where is the charter for killing war? Sadly hidden in the warrior's glove Making light for ever more
Magna Charter shows a path Over which no truth can stray Floating as a neutral craft along its way
Should there ever be a charter With words to change the course of man To give us peace and hope and understanding And take us back to where it all began
The sword is still the only answer The loudest sound that can be heard The screams of silence as the fear grows stronger Hear the people Cry to no-one No-one hears their words.
