It's late after midnight and your trying to sleep
You imagine yourself in a world of dreams
Hold tight to your pillow pull the sheets over head
Your trying to block out those nightmares in your head

You see all the worlds leaders going insane
Yah they call up their war machines with their bullets and pain
The bodies are scattered like the drops of the rain
And your lying here watching them killing each other away
Yah your lying here watching them killing each other away

You know their killing when they meet
And their killing in the streets
Their killing in the hills
And their killing in the fields
Their dying in the fields

Its late after midnight and your trying to sleep
You see the hand of the reaper stretching out through the night
The bodies are scattered like the drops of the rain
And your lying here watching him taking the corpses' away
Yah your lying here watching him taking the corpses' away

You know their killing when they meet
And their killing in the streets
Their killing in the hills
And their killing in the fields
Their dying in the fields
