Just a product of the cold war

Just another of those lost souls

Just a man with a white knuckle grip

Of a fist that’s never thrown

I struggle every day to stay ahead

Of what I need and what they know

‘Cause every time I look

There’s another baited hook

With my favorite kind of low

Oh

When will it end

X2

My guns are loaded and my eyes are wide

Better not be on the wrong side

‘Cause if you wait around

They won’t think to cut you down

And that’s not a boast of pride

If you’re not here to fight

You’d better move aside

‘Cause we’re all gonna die

But some will die alive

Oh

When will it end

X2

You say you’ll finish it

You’ll let all the sinners in

But how long has it been

How long has it been

You’ll break down the walls inside

You’ll bridge the great divide

But how long has it been

How long has it been?

Oh

When will it end
