Nikki Lynette - Civil War | Текст песни

A pictures worth a thousand words and words and words are just a caption
the images are disturbing so I hope u have the flash on
War over there, the war at home
the war that makes fathers abandon their own
worn and tattered, our minds are scattered, we seek distraction from tv and phones
Recruited by movies and news to be molded into a particular view
Opposite sides attracting lies. They were taught they should be patriots too
Politicians on parade as soon as the senate is seated
We watch the news and pray the opposition gets defeated
That means America prays for death, so who are we to cry when
one of the kids from your home become the one that death resides in
one boy hits concrete when he lands
the other one falls in gravel and the sand
only difference is one prayed to the east,
one prayed to the sky, neither grew to be a man
Lets rewind, go back in time, destroy the M-24 snipers,
machine guns, hand guns, kill a young man guns, stinger missiles and vipers,
put the shrapnel back into the bomb, reattach his arm, give him back to his mom, with a kiss and a hug, we meant no harm. Tell her there was never any cause for alarm.

Big guns with automatic recoil
tripod mounted on a bed of oil
sent to Shell, bought by a young male who's stray bullet sent a kid to the soil
Rest in peace, not tucked beneath sheets with a kiss on the cheek then close your eyes
cemeteries are bedrooms when the gunshots sing the lullabies
How can I care about war in Iraq when down the street kids getting killed over crack
beats and breaks and drops non-stop, this is real life, its not hip hop
Simulated training, video games taught them to be soldiers
They took to the streets or to the Marines when they got bored with controllers
Vietnam ruined daddy's life before I was born he was beating his wife
Where was my army, and where are they now
When you hear the war cry, who cries for the child .
I pay my taxes, why should I answer a call to service?
Cause if I die the 65,000 in loan repayment is worthless
protected by a nation of the kids grew up next to me
they ruin them & send them home like the veteran who molested me
no therapy or crystal meth erases the stain of facing death,
and when death seems like the only cure, who'll use the oil when no one's left?

I turn my eyes away and I refuse the read the paper.
We'd rather not think about it than start questioning our savior
We leave it in the hands of god cuz ours are so much smaller
a fist in the air protesting war makes our troops feel dishonored
So heartlessly we squander our attention til its depleted
the news feeds us the lies, we're overweight because we eat it
Maltreated and cheated, our brain knows where its not needed
Its easier to lose your mind than be the only one that keeps it
after 50 years of war the only secret's where the peace is
I'll go nuts trying to find it so distractions are releases
gimme reality tv dont let real news come near me though
dont show me no violence unless its in a music video
Mothers are crying, our only response is offering water proof make up coupons
we love make overs cause thats what they do, distort the reports and make over the truth.
We blame the congress, we blame the senate, we blame the media wrapped up within it
u point the finger but soon as u do, 3 fingers are pointed right back at u
