lyrics

Another day, another mission
Same sweat stained combat boots
Same orders, hit and run
Think of wars that we had and then of wars that we have left
When your country calls for you to murder
In a war where nothing is gained
Where the slaughter of people is inhumane
When your country sends its war machine
You know it’s just a game and the winner keeps breathing
They tell you god is on your side
that when you kill it’s justified

But the romance of war turns bad
when you send your friends home in body bags
With anger strong and bitterness high
you struggle to fight the emotions inside
You’re taught to be tough
that you’re not a man
You’re taught to be mean
you’re a killing machine

This partly was your choice
you thought it was the right one
and now you wish you could return
to the way it used to be

Hidden away deep down inside you’re a man
and you cannot hide
Your children scream and your children cry
because they don’t understand the reason why
you left them to go out and fight
But your country knows what’s good for you
Now take your orders carry them through

There will never be peace on earth my friend
so listen to the feet of the marching men
