Oh, stay on top, we can't be fallin'
The hate machine, it's engines roar
From the ground, the aggression is risin'
But what's it for, what cost war
Yeah
Out for blood, they turn the tables
The iron fist, will rule by fear
Overcome, with greed and violence
They're back for more, what cost war
What cost war
What cost war
What cost war
Oh, where has the world gone now
Is what you see, just what you get
I know, right where we're headin' for
I don't know if we'll make it out
I hope it won't leave us something to doubt now
Ooh
What cost war
What cost war, what is it for, slam the god
What cost war, yeah
What cost war
What cost war
What's it for, war!
