The Cyberobots - Broken World Lyrics

Footsteps lost in shifting sand
No home no shelter no promised land
A distant cry a fleeting glance
Where borders fade there's no second chance
The sky is dark with whispered fear
The winds of war are drawing near
But who decides the price we pay
When peace is just a dream away?

In broken streets the shadows fall
Names forgotten stories tall
The lines they draw they blur in dust
Leaving nothing but shattered trust

And the world that once was whole
Now echoes through a shattered soul
They build their walls they raise their flags
But in the end it's just the same old rags
Who decrees the flames that burn?
In every war there's no return

The heart of man it once was kind
But now it's lost in greed confined
Territory claimed with blood and steel
While lives dissolve no time to heal
The soil we tread it holds no name
Only echoes of forgotten blame
For every step towards a fight
We lose the stars we dim the light

The leaders speak but hearts don't hear
Their voices cold their vision clear
But who will carry the weight of pain
When no one's left to call their name?

And the world that once was whole
Now echoes through a shattered soul
They build their walls they raise their flags
But in the end it's just the same old rags
Who decrees the flames that burn?
In every war there's no return

Through the smoke the children cry
As dreams are broken left to die
The hands that hold the pen of fate
Have never known a peaceful state
They draw the lines they sign the page
But all they leave is endless rage

And the world that once was whole
Now echoes through a shattered soul
They build their walls they raise their flags
But in the end it's just the same old rags
Who decrees the flames that burn?
In every war there's no return

The peace we seek it fades away
As shadows stretch across the day
But in the heart of those displaced
There's hope though time is left erased
