The Same Old Story

Guess I just needed to say something ……
Well, the line's been drawn, we'll ignore and we'll invade,
It's best if you run, or get on your knees and pray,
After midnight, bullets will start to fly,
And the bombs will fall, and light up the sky.
I need this glory, sounds like the same old story.
Well, we'll roll through your streets, victory will be ours,
No point resisting, it's written in the stars,
New day dawns, and you'll be one of us,
Enjoy our ' freedom ' , no need to make a fuss.
I need this glory, sounds like the same old story.
Well, now we won the war, we never lose the peace,
You'll all stay in line, or meet our secret police,
The future's bright, 'cause you know we are right,
Join our clan, you know that's my plan.
I need this glory, sounds like the same old story.
I need this glory, sounds like the same old story.

Thanks for this one Roger.... I'm so sad every day that we live in another era that repeats the same old sins of history. When will humans learn that we can all share and everyone will have enough?

Great song written about a horrific event. I never thought I’d see this kind of thing happen in the world.

Yep... Not much to say really... But I like how you've done it... Those chords in the chorus/refrain, moves the vibe from "triumphant" to "empty" as you deliver the line.
