Prisoner of war, prisoner of love, there's a torch to my head,
Crimes of passion, got crimes of youth, stop the ringing in my head,
Born again and not born at all, future is full of smoke,
Born to lead, and the need to think,
I grab my lungs and I choke.

What we take for granted can be taken away, then you ask for more you're still, You're still dropping bombs from a plane, went down in the civil war,
Drive the nails, yeah, drive them hard, peace turns to war again,
Crown of thorns and the crown of peace, political battleship.

Crimes against humanity, the dogs are closing in,
And when the kingdom comes, it will bring it to an end,
Tell me you believe.

Let's crown another beauty queen, do you find it is so obscene,
What about the homeless, the starving, the poor'
No room for the sick 'cause the rich want more,
Lied to us, and they lied to them, breaks my heart inside
Took their hope, and they stole their love; no life left in their eyes.

Crimes against humanity, the dogs are closing in,
And when the kingdom comes, it will bring it to an end,
Tell me you believe,
Tell me you believe.

I stand on this hill and I scream your name, yeah; it's something they tried to erase,
Some say, "Nothing lasts forever, we all run the risk of being lost",
Some hold on, and some never thought to believe.

We've gotta have bigger guns,
Gotta find higher suns,
One day you'll see the truth that you've been running from,
We've gotta have bigger guns,
Gotta find higher suns,
One day you'll see the truth that you've been running from,
Tell me you believe.

Yeah I believe in love,
Yeah I believe; it's all that we have left.
