WAR IN THE CITY. First single to be taken from forthcoming album. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRU9rhgxDQo

lyrics

There's a city we once called a lady
She's now known as a beaten whore
The tears of joy are now her tears of sorrow
She's a city that's at war
You see the hate and feel the pain
They close the door and don't come back again
How's it ever gonna be alright
When we're now living in the killing times

War in the city X2

There's a mother broken hearted
Lying face down on the floor
She is crying for her babies
'cause tonight they are at war

War in the city X2

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
You mess with them, they'll put a bullet in you
It's no longer cowboys and indians
Now the gunplay, it's turned real
