[Intro/Verse: Cristina Scabbia]
Destruction
War
Fight in defence
Forgotten words
Of friendly hate
War—destruction
War—destruction

[Verse: Cristina]
I don't know why
A soul deceased
A broken hope
A choking breeze
War—destruction
War—destruction

[Chorus: Andrea Ferro, Cristina]
Can't you take me away from your lies?
Can't you take me away from your lies?

[Verse: Cristina]
Destruction
Dark paradise
Collecting souls
To analyse
War—destruction
War—destruction
[Verse: Cristina]
The bitter blood
Of children's cry
Inside the truth
Far from my sky
War—destruction
War—destruction

[Chorus: Andrea, Cristina]
Can't you take me away from your lies?
Can't you take me away from your lies?

[Instrumental + garbled audio war report samples]

[Chorus: Andrea, Cristina]
Can't you take me away from your lies?
Can't you take me away from your lies?
Can't you take me away from your lies?
Can't you take me away from your lies?...

[Outro: Andrea]
Can't you take me?
Can't you take me?
Can't you take me?
Can't you take me?
