But you could find it if you really cared,
 Because I pay my taxes and I pay my dues,
 All I ask for in return is the truth.
 Can we just be honest, I've heard that speech is free
 So please believe me that this address is sincere
 I'm no-one special, just a regular guy
 But I just can't keep on wondering why
 That the shells we fired they now kill our own
 And we waste away like shadows in our homes.

 I fell from blue skies, fought through desert storms
 I froze in firefights, I killed someone,
 That had a father who loved him just like mine
 Who believed the sacrifice was justified
 In the name of freedom and in the name of God
 While shifting sands hid all our sins and all the blood
 In the wake of glory, I flew back home
 I watch videos at night in my uniform
 Of those towns and cities being blown apart
 By those bombs that fool the people by being smart
 As they flew down chimneys, flew along corridors
 And explode on film and everyone goes 'awe!'

 And you read the stories about how no-one's killed
 And I think about the photos that I kept
 To remind me that it was all for real
 And the ghost that I've become will be released
 To the sands still shifting that cover all the lies
 About what really happened and who really died.
 Was it really worth it?
 Was it worth the cost?
 Did we really take the high ground or have we lost all the moral battles, did we lose the war?
 Mr President I need to know for sure
 That with all this knowledge, all this control
 That we were on the right side after all
 That we weren't lied to, that we weren't used
 And the country that we fought for still upholds the truth.

 Mr President you don't know my name
 But you can find it if you really cared
 It's on a black wall, it's on a cross of stone
 In the Balkan States, the Gulf and close to home
 On not so foreign islands out on city streets
 Mr President, just tell me why I'm here
 This is my question, this is my life, this is my address
 Mr President
 Mr President, Mr President
 This is my address, this is my address, this is my address,
 Mr President
 Mr President
 This is my address
