Текст песни: Guns in the Distance + перевод

80 dead in a foreign place

22 in the bombed foyer, there’s

Bloody hands, can you wash these stains?

For the times, can we stop this rage?

Watch the truth get indoctrinated

No money, no doctors for patients

Always money for bombs and not payslips

And the bullets, they keep you in slavery

Mother won’t get to kiss her child

Father won’t get to see her smile

Little hands, can you hold on tighter?

You saw death, now it’s in her eyes

Heard they want to see you misplaced, and

What the hell are we doin' to change things?

Politicians, can you see this pain?

'Cause I can hear guns in the distance

And why don’t they listen

When a mother cries for her children?

Ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy

I can hear guns in the distance

And why don’t they listen

When a mother cries for her children?

Ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy

95 in a boat found drownin'

26 from a soldier’s gun, there’s

Too many kids, many open coffins

Tell me how all these wars been sponsored

Gettin' rich, tell me who gets paid

Little boy in the mornin' page

Do we mourn? Do we learn his name?

Another lost in the pourin' rain

Do we try? Do we try? Do we fall back?

Little girl gettin' called by the food bank

Another mistake is sold through a new plan

Wonder awake and hope for the future

See who gets mentioned as your minutes hand ticks by

Tell me who gets sentenced as they commit violence at stateside

Old greedy men send boys time again out to the front line

Who’s a tyrant here? Who’s a terrorist? I’m seein' bloodlines

If love is a kingdom, this is a prison that we’re inside

And listen, child, go…

'Cause I can hear guns in the distance

And why don’t they listen

When a mother cries for her children?

Ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy

I can hear guns in the distance

And why don’t they listen

When a mother cries for her children?

Ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy

Better we run, better we hide away

Forever we fall, we’re burnin' the sky away

They’ll never be young, they’ll never be ours again

Now, look what we’ve done

And look what we’ve left for them

Now, look what we’ve done

Look what we’ve left for them

Now, look what we’ve done

Look what we’ve left for them

Now, look what we’ve done

Look what we’ve left for them

I can hear guns in the distance

And why don’t they listen

When a mother cries for her children?

Ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy

I can hear guns in the distance

And why don’t they listen, why don’t they?

When a mother cries for her children?

Ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy

Ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy

Ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy

Ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy

Ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy-ooh-ayy

When a mother cries for her children
