Lyrics
To The War Track 8...
If the day would come to fight for what is right
Would you go?
Would you guard the ground you've reaped from all your life
Would you say yes
Or would you say no?
And if the legacies of your land were on the line
Would you pledge your allegiance if death be the fate you may find
Look in your hearts
Do you know?

To the war ...
Does the freedom seek the strong or seek the weak
Do you care
Would you face the foe or turn your other cheek
And 'bandon the hearts your children must share
And if the sanctities of your creeds were terrorized
Would you kneel down in dastardly grace
Or would you stand up and fight
Man would you march to war.....

Lyrics
Carnal Question Track 9....
If came back just a cripple from the war
Would you hold me close just like you did before?
And what in the world would you do,
If I could not make love to you?
The question is not whether the freedom we've got
Is worth the consequence of war.
The question is just, can I hold you at dusk,
Without you asking me for more?
A post-war eunuch,
A lover that is lame,
Some famous hero, and one shares his name.
But where in the world would I go?
You're all that I love and all I know.
The question is plain,
Could our love still remain
Without it's carnal ecstasy?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And who in the world would I be,
If I lose all of you and half of me?
Oh........
