Culture of Silence - Children of an Endless War (Remastered) Lyrics

Did you know he was a soldier boy?
I didn't think you did
He wasn't reading writing to destroy
Kept his body hid

From the views of everyone he knew
But like his future son
There wasn't anything that he could do
To make the past be gone

Get yourself a little more
Help yourself to a little bit more time
You've got to let it shine
When the walls around you are closing in
Tell us what the future gives

I didn't know she was a soldier boy
I didn't think you did
She wasn't reading writing to destroy
Kept her body hid

From the views of everyone she knew
But like her future son
There wasn't anything that she could do
To make the past be gone

Get yourself a little more
Help yourself to a little bit more time
You've got to let it shine
When the walls around you are closing in
Tell us what the future gives

Who holds the debt?
Your body's paying the price
School's closing down in your head
Don't pull the trigger the haunted will multiply
'Cause with this running all around in circles
It's mighty tough to ride to the end of the line
You've got to let it shine
When the walls around you are closing in
Tell us what the future gives
