WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO WHEN SOMEONE WAVES A BATTLE FLAG? 

UNTIE YOUR HANDS OR CRAWL INTO A BODY BAG? 

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU HEAR THE CALL, YOU扲E STANDING WITH YOUR BACK AGAINST THE WALL. 

I扗 LIKE TO THINK I扗 NEVER RAISE A FIST BUT I AIN扵 NEVER BEEN PUT TO THE TEST 

AND I CAN BLAME THE PATRIOT FOR BEING BLINDLY LEAD, 

BUT DO WE LIVE THE VIOLENCE OR THE VIOLENCE WE扸E INHERITED 



BLACKENED AND BLUE YOU WATCH ANOTHER TURN THE SCREW 

GOING ON AND ON AND ON 



I KNOW IT扴 DUMB, WHEN I WAS SEVENTEEN I THOUGHT ABOUT MY PLACE IN HISTORY 

AND WAS THERE ANYTHING WORTH FRIGHTENING FOR AND WOULD I EVER HAVE TO LIVE THROUGH WAR. 

AND I WON扵 BLAME THE REBEL FOR REMOVING HIS OWN CHAINS. 

AND I THINK A TIME MAY COME WHEN I MAY JUST HAVE TO DO THE SAME.
