I have an ear full for you to hear

[fuckisjustaword]

If together we stand
And united we fall
Why do we bother
Helping others at all.
We can't help ourselves
Out of this mess
That someone, somwhere
Thought might be best.
We are only as good
As our weakest link
But we damn ourselves perversly
As the public watches in disbelief.
Our noses turned up
In times of crises
And we're supposed to be
The most powerful country?

Babies in their craddles
Afraid of your guns
Implanting in their head
That war is a daily occurence
"It isn't all bad"
But no one asked us to help.
You shoved us in harms way
Without leaving us an out.
Now we all must suffer
For one mans unfinished buisness
Isn't that treason
To betray your country
And what they think.

We are the backbone of this society
And you ask us to shoot your guns
At someone who pissed off your daddy.
Instead of helping us up
You keep pushing us back down
Until one day
You're going to look around
And see what you've done
To this country you love
The moms and the dads
Hugging their sons
As they walk off to your war
Never to return.
