  • Verse 1
    By Graham Goble 

    Ego claims 
    the victory, 

    the silence 
    closes 
    again, 

    Dream 
    rain down 
    on human
    ity 

    as we stand with 
    our 
    face to 
    the wind, 

    Pris
    oners taken 
    and 
    locked 
    away, 

    the tri
    al 
    has 
    begun, 

    The 
    truth 
    is 
    forsaken 
    and 
    we cannot 
    say 
    who is 
    the fortunate 

    one. 



    My little 
    son, 
    he looked 

    up 
    and said to 
    me, 

    "I wanna 
    know, 

    now 
    who is the 
    enemy? 

    The radio 
    just said 
    there was 

    gonna 
    be 
    cruel 
    madness." 

    cruel 
    madeness, 

    That 
    our kids 
    have 
    to live 
    in 

    this world 
    as 
    it is 
    today, 

    cruel 
    mad
    ness, 

    You know, 
    just 
    want 
    out, 

    I wanna 
    scream 
    and shout 
    and 
    turn 
    it 
    about, 

    Sail 
    away. 

    What can 
    I say 
    to 
    someone 

    as 
    young 
    as you? 

    How could 
    you know 
    the things 

    that 
    a man will 
    do? 

    Or 
    understand 
    what nobody 
    ever 
    knew, 

    it's just 
    cruel 
    mad
    ness. 

    cruel 
    madeness, 

    That our 
    kids 
    have 
    to live 

    in this 
    world 
    as 
    it is 
    today, 

    cruel 
    mad
    ness, 

    You know, 
    I just 
    want 
    out, 

    I wanna 
    scream 
    and 
    shout 
    and 
    turn 
    it 
    about, 

    Sail 
    away. 


    Lines 
    are 
    drawn 
    the number
    called 

    for 
    those 
    who must 
    obey, 

    Sons 
    and 
    daughters 
    climb 
    the city 
    walls 

    to 
    give 
    their 
    youth 
    away, 

    How 
    much 
    longer 
    will in
    sanity 

    reign? 
    When 
    can 
    we 
    go 
    home? 

    Why 
    do na
    tions 
    want 
    to 
    live 
    this 
    way? 

    In 
    their 
    world 
    all 
    alone 
    ... 

    My 
    little 
    son, 
    don't 
    cry, 

    You 
    have the 
    power 
    within 
    your 
    life, 

    Don't 
    be afraid, 

    your 
    tenderness 
    will stop 
    this 
    cruel 
    mad
    ness. 

    cruel 
    madeness, 

    That 
    our kids 
    have 
    to live 

    in this 
    world 
    as 
    it is 
    today, 

    cruel 
    mad
    ness, 

    You know, 
    just 
    want 
    out, 

    I wanna 
    scream 
    and shout 
    and 
    turn 
    it 
    about, 

    Madeness, 

    That 
    our kids 
    have to 
    live 
    in 

    this world 
    as 
    it is 
    today, 

    cruel 
    mad
    ness, 

    You know, 
    just 
    want 
    out, 

    I wanna 
    scream 
    and 
    shout 
    and 
    turn 
    it 
    about, 

    Outro 1
    Sail 
    away.

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
