Civil War by Guns N' Roses

'What we've got here is (1)______________ to communicate.
Some men you just can't reach.
So, you get what we had (2)________ (3)________ week,
which is the way he wants it.
Well, he gets it. I don't like it
any (4)________ than you men.'

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

Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the (6)________ we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before

My hands are tied
The billions (7)__________ from side to side
And the (8)________ go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our (9)__________ rights
And all these things are swept aside
By (10)____________ hands time can't deny
And are washed (11)________ by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars

Did you wear a black armband
When they (12)________ 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 never (13)________ for Vietnam
We got the (14)________ of D.C. to remind 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 (15)__________ it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war

Look at the (16)__________ you're filling
Look at the (17)__________ we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always (18)________ before
Look in the doubt we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the lies we've swallowed
And I don't (19)________ to hear no more

My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind
But (20)__________ the wars go on as the (21)__________ go by
With no love of God or human rights
'Cause all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the (22)__________ of homicide
And history bears the scars of our civil wars

We (23)________________ selective annihilation
Of mayors and government officials
For example to create a vacuum
Then we fill that vacuum
As popular war advances
Peace is closer

I don't need your (24)__________ war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
And I don't (25)________ (26)________ civil war
I don't need your civil war
I don't need your (27)__________ war
Your (28)__________ hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't (29)________ fresh
I don't need your civil war
I don't need one more war

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