War
always the same thing
the true facts of life
being out there
waiting to return to your wife
sometimes it’s quiet
sometimes it’s like hell
you have to fight and kill
even though it doesn’t feel well
watching your buddies getting slaughtered
their organs and blood on your backpack
you’re fighting for some rich assholes
who think it doesn’t mean jack
but they’re not here now, are they
and still they have everything to say
they’ve nothing to fear
and we fear our lives every day
fighting for your rights they call it
fighting for peace? Yeah right
we’re just fighting so they can put money in their pockets
while a ton of our friends have to go to the light
do we even get to go to the light
are we even allowed in heaven, cause we do kill others
sometimes I think
that there’s no one who even bothers
well I do, I think about the lives I take
I’m sorry, that’s what I think after every death
but if I didn’t kill him first
he would have killed me instead
war, it’s always the same
the loss of children, women and men
and am I a bad guy
if I just think about going home again
Dedicated to the soldiers and victims of war !

| I see you haven''t lost your touch yet.. very well written.. I''m against war too (who isn''t?!) but I''m a bit more cautious about making statements like: we’re just fighting so they can put money in their pockets..I think it''s much more complicated than that.. x! |
