Clue #8: This song, which has been played live, is not dissimilar to "Age of Innocence" as regards the lyrics.
Clue #9: The rest of the lyrics are too graphic and sad to be hinted at here by pictures (this remains a game) so here is a visual twist on the title:

Congratulations @MindRuler and @Jmaster (the former has been a tad faster)! 
I don't have the time to justify everything properly, so let me try this:
Sometimes it makes me wonder
Sometimes it makes me question
Sometimes it makes me saddened
Always it makes me angry (Clue #7)
But when you can see it happening
Madness that's all around you
Nobody seems to worry
The world seems so powerless to act
It's out of control
Blood on the world's hands
Each day a new toll
Another assassination
The same day a new creation (Clue #3: the journalist Anna Politkovskaïa was assassinated on the same day as Vladimir Putin's birthday, on October 7th 2006)
But what are they coming into?
Security of a world that brings
One day another killing
Somewhere there's someone starving
Another a savage raping
Meanwhile there's someone laughing at us (Clue #4)
It's out of control
Blood on the world's hands
Each day it goes on
Blood on the world's hands
Blood on the world's hands
Blood on the world's hands
Blood on the world's hands
Blood on the world's hands
Blood on the world's hands
Blood on the world's hands
Blood on the world's hands (Clue #1)
Brutality and aggression
Tomorrow another lesson
Expecting another air raid
Praying for a ceasefire
They say things are getting better
No need to be complacent
There's chaos across the border
And one day it could be happening to us
It's out of control
Blood on the world's hands
It's our epitaph (Clue #2, this is indeed what is written on the tombstone on LAD's cover)
It's out of control
Someone should know
Blood on the world's hands
Someone should
+ Clue #5: the novelty (then) was an opening bass solo (they did it again later with "The Red and the Black"). (On a more subjective note, this is possibly the first Maiden I really disliked upon discovering it (and still do) because of its lack of melody particularly)
Clue #6: the bass solo contains a fading echo between two sections.
Clue #8: both set of lyrics sound very "Daily Mail/ Fox News/ us vs. them" conservative.
Your turn @MindRuler.
