歌词
Dad, what did you do in the war?
你在打仗的时候做了什么，爸爸？
Something to answer for?
为什么不回答我呢？
You say too young I am to know

Dad, I've heard you cry at night
但是爸爸，我听见你在夜晚哭泣
Mournful and desperate plight
空气里弥漫着悲伤和绝望
Where did you learn that song you sing

"War is in me! I was the war!
“战争于我，从未止息！”
And your prying brings back the suffering
你在祈祷，却带给我苦难
No, please, don't start to cry
不，请你不要落泪
I only pray you'll never know
我但愿你永远不会知道
Things I see every time I close my eyes
纠缠我的那些梦魇
Angels still have faces"
愿纯真依旧伴随那些笑脸
What did you do in the war, dad, tell me
爸，告诉我你究竟在战争中做了什么？
Why can't you smile when the children sing
无邪的歌谣，为何不能给你带来欢乐？
Did the wages of war cut your soaring wings
你翱翔的翅膀，是否被战争无情斩落？
And your soul is now torn, unlike mine
我心依旧完整，你的却早已零落
Do you fear yesterday will in someway
你是否担心，昨日的阴影
Define the life of your child?

Dad, I know what you did in the war

Deeds devils would abhor

Did you fulfill the oath you swore?

Their blood for my life to live

In the hollow without reprieve, without you

"War is in me! I am the war!
“战争于我，仍未止息！”
Don't you force me to live the nightmare again(!I'm sorry)
不要让我活在梦魇当中！（对不起...）
Please, don't make me cry
不，请别让我落泪
My son, you never ever want to know
孩子，你永远不会想知道
How when guarding your sleep serene I hear
当你安然入睡时，我耳边的回响
The silence of the children who sang"
寂静之中，那无邪的歌声这样唱到：
Far and beyond the stars there's
“在那遥远的星河，
A place where all the love,
有一片充满爱的乐园
All the goodness we could have still resides
人性的善良，在那里尚未磨灭”
But we choose life away from the light
但我们的生命，已和光明渐行渐远
You can find ghosts of loss in the gaze of your
失丧的灵魂，还会不时出现在
Beautiful child
你无辜后代的眼中
