untitled

















please forgive me - i will not salute you
we see right through your fake
smile

baby kissing
missle liffting off
tonight

mother's eldest
won't be coming home this
time

give me a black eye
punch me out - i'll rise
again

flex your power
flash your guns - it's all fleeting in the
end

pressing onward rolling over all the dead
just as long as you're safe and sound in your
bed

three shots fired the war is here
the war is now - not in your
head

this is the nightmare
this is the american
dream
