Led forth onto shore
He worked them all till their bodies were sore
With sticks and stones he broke their bones
And with his words he killed some more
The trees were shaking, clinging onto life
Until he led them away
He led them away to the other side
He moved east and starved the poor
Sent in a ship with a planned reform
With sticks and stones he broke their bones
And twisted words till they lost all form
He told them all of a rich and better life
Then he led them away
He led them away to the other side
To the west, in the nightmare dark
All the dogs of Europe barked
With sticks and stones he broke their bones
And with his words he began the start
Of endless marching, through mud, and blood and lies
Then he led them away
He led them away to the other side
He packed the bodies up to the wall
Crammed them full and locked the doors
With sticks and stones he broke their bones
Words mean nothing anymore
From this point on there’s nothing left in life
Except for the way
Except for the way to the other side
This land is mine this land is yours
We’re out of ways to settle the scores
With sticks and stones we’ll break their bones
And use their words to kill some more
The world is waiting, forming one big line
To be led away
Led away to the other side
