This massive gallery of killing tools

A mad number of technological miracles

Weapons not only kill their targets

They also kill those who pull the trigger

Violence, the language of the weak

Let the pen be mightier than the sword

Than the sword

Wartime absurdity

Economy's prosperity

Greed over conscience

Mothers weep over their dead sons' bodies

Prices are rising on the stock

One man's sorrow, another man's pleasure?

Is that it, is that it?

All these victims of greed and loss

All these pictures you cannot forget

All these victims of greed and loss

All these pictures you cannot forget

All these victims of greed and loss

All these pictures you cannot forget

A soldier's innocence devoured by fierce memories

Let the pen be mightier than the sword

Let the pen be mightier than the sword

One man's sorrow, another man's pleasure?

Is that it, is that it?

Tamed, deceived, enslaved by power

Lost, devoured, consumed with trauma

Enslaved by power
