NOT ANTI WAR deeper then that
Our lives about to break
From the wire that holds strong
How much more can we take
Of the lies, fed for so long

Are we fighting for Pride?
Or to watch our people die?
To make us live cold and blind
leaving faith and beliefs behind

Morals twisted and thoughts corrupt
Only for what THEY say is right
Now we must let our rage errupt
For this is our time to fight.

The world tries to mislead reason
Of the deaths of fathers and mothers
For we have commited treason
As we stand for the others

Why leave the children crying
The lies smother us to death
Is it real or are you buying
Or be misled till there's nothing left
