Afraid To Shoot Strangers -- Iron Maiden

Lying awake at night I wipe the sweat From my brow But it's not the fear 'cause I'd rather go now Trying to visualize the horrors that Will lay ahead
The desert sand mound a burial ground

When it comes to the time Are we partners in crime When it comes to the time We'll be ready to die God let us go now and finish what's To be done
Thy Kingdom Come Thy shall be done, on earth

Trying to justify to ourselves the Reasons to go Should we live and let live Forget or forgive But how can we let them go on this way 
The reign of terror corruption must end And we know deep down there's
No other way No trust, no reasoning, no more to say
Afraid to shoot strangers  Afraid to shoot strangers   (sing365)  




This is a political track based on war and how governments and generals are using soldiers as pawns when they don't really want to kill anyone.   (songfacts)  






  Disasters of War  -- Goya

1810s, Goya created a set of aquatint prints titled The Disasters of War. Although he did not make known his intention when creating the plates, art historians view them as a visual protest against the violence of the 1808 Dos de Mayo Uprising, the subsequent Peninsular War of 1808–14 and the setbacks to the liberal cause following the restoration of the Bourbon monarchy in 1814. The scenes are singularly disturbing, sometimes macabre in their depiction of battlefield horror, and represent an outraged conscience in the face of death and destruction.               (wikipedia)
