Civil War by Guns N' Roses

'What we've got here is (1)______________ to communicate.
Some men you (2)________ can't reach.
So, you get (3)________ we had here last week,
which is the way he wants it.
Well, he gets it. I don't like it
any more than you men.'

Look at your (4)__________ men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always (5)________ before

Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before

My hands are tied
The billions shift (6)________ side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed (7)________ by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars

Did you wear a black armband
When they shot the man
Who said 'Peace could last forever'
And in my first memories
They shot Kennedy
I went numb when I learned to see
So I (8)__________ fell for Vietnam
We got the wall of D.C. to (9)____________ us all
That you can't trust freedom
When it's not in your hands
When everybody's fightin'
For their promised land

And
I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your (10)__________ hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't (11)________ your (12)__________ war

Look at the shoes you're filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always (13)________ before
Look in the (14)__________ we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the (15)________ we've swallowed
And I don't want to hear no more

My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind
But still the wars go on as the years go by
With no (16)________ of God or (17)__________ rights
'Cause all these (18)____________ are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide
And (19)______________ bears the (20)__________ of our civil wars

We practice selective annihilation
Of mayors and (21)____________________ officials
For example to create a vacuum
Then we fill that vacuum
As popular war advances
Peace is closer

I don't need your civil war
It (22)__________ the rich (23)__________ it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
And I don't need your civil war
I don't need your (24)__________ war
I don't need your civil war
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human (25)______________ store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your (26)__________ war
I don't need one (27)________ war

I don't need one more war
What's so civil 'bout war anyway
