War comes at a cost
And everyone will pay
Life, Labor, Luxuries
When will we see the end?

Nations fight for many reasons
Power, Protection, Prosperity
Does it really matter who wins in the end?

Yes it does, I know
But look at the price tag
Can we really afford it?

Look at what you're bidding for
100 men!
2,000!
Look it's in the millions

War simply put
Is a Auction
How many lives will you give?
