We aren't allowed to attack the troops with voices of resistance?
They're just following orders,
part of command
Support the slaughter
as we divide and conquer foreign civilian land
It is really so blasphemous to return all the tags
and disarm all the guns?
It's really not that cynical
Compassion and pity for any
child, woman or being who falls to causality
But when military suicides outweigh artillery fire
it becomes that much more unbearable to hear
the chorus scream,
divided we fall, united we stand
Divided we fall, united we stand?
Fuck that
Sure it's not knighted we stand?
Instead of united we stand?
Oh look, the chorus gets to parade
as we etch another slash into our glorious past
March, two, three, four
We'll teach the children to hum along to war-time melodies
As the caskets are lined and draped
we'll teach them not to fear
Freedom will persevere
But what we really mean to say is
our freedom will prevail at the cost of you, son
Our freedom will prevail at the cost of you, doll
Our freedom will prevail at the cost of them, son
Our freedom will prevail at the cost of them, doll
