Only Time Will Tell - Earth & Fire

The general teaches his soldiers

They know how to kill

The preacher teaches his children

That life matters still

Only time will tell

Why these things are side by side

Only time will tell

Why they’re like day and night

The scientist tears the flower

And lets it die

The poet loves it’s beauty

A treasure for his eye

The man takes a woman

He burns her love away

The loser accepts his fate

He’s love in a way
