I don't want my children to inherit a war that I don't even believe in But when I hear the sound of the bombs on the ground I feel a little bit discouraged in a world full of hate
If this is the last song I ever recorded If these are the last words I ever spoke Let it be known my intention was to bring you home Hope for a better tomorrow
Cease-fire when bullets aren't silent a peaceful progression denied I don't think they can see there's a better way There's a better way to survive It goes in one ear and out the other ear You don't know what I know It goes in one ear and out the other ear You don't know what I know We stand here You never listen
If this is the last song I ever recorded If these are the last words I ever spoke Let it be known my intention was to bring you home All I want to do is bring you home
It's the irony of being an American Support your troops so we can piss on a veteran Repeats itself the history There's a beauty in irony Shots ring out in a heated crowd Brothers and sisters are crying aloud Because their mothers and their fathers are nowhere to be found In the chaos that is this world It goes in one ear and out the other ear You don't know what I know It goes in one ear and out the other ear You don't know what I know We stand here You never listen
Holding on they set you up on and on and on Holding on they set you up on and on and on On and on and on and on
Set sail for the new horizon By dawn we will be in a new world Set sail for the new horizon By dawn
Set sail for the new horizon By dawn we will be in a new world Set sail for the new horizon By dawn we will be in a new world We will be in a new world
