In my opinion one of the best anti-war songs ever... from the German legendary progrock band Eloy and their album Time to Turn.

Inspired by the books "Faces Of World War" I felt the desire to show the faces, or at least some of them...

And here the lyrics:

HEY - HEY

say, is it really true,

that the flame of hope has grown?

that the spirit has changed;

that the few no longer stand alone?

say, is it really true,

that the thought of war's lost its meaning?

that self-made devils died;

the idols of wealth and power are sinking?

the coldest nights finally followed by dawn;

an outburst of light,

that cures the blind.

a strong conviction has evolved in time;

that life demands deeds we must define.

say, is it really true,

that once buried virtues now arise?

that the being itself

no longer asks for a disguise?

a power that's been neglected, denied;

now blossoms and grows, calls out the best.

at last the change of an era has come;

but there won't be much time to rest.

say, is this the force I feel within

heart and mind the truth?

or am I deceived again, painfully abused?

say, is it really true,

that the flame of hope has grown?

or am I deceived again, painfully abused?

This song is not composed about war, as far as I understand. It's the final song of the "Time To Turn" album, the second album to the "Planets" "Time To Turn" story, and the song is much more than only about war "say, is this the force I feel within heart and mind the truth?" It's about the change inside of someone, not outside.
