A New War — текст песни (With Honor)

Will we see the day when the trees that we hang our heads from,
Hit the ground like dead men`s love songs,
Offering another history of privilege and open doors?
As they march us off to a new war,
When it`s through there`ll be a hundred more.
With us to wonder what the hell we`re fighting for.
RESIST; cycle repeat; relinquish.
We`ve made an art of giving in,
Forfeiting steps we should have taken.
Will we see a light in the dark at this tunnel`s end?
To pacify the rage of hallow slogan,
To expose picket sign pretense,
And rationalize words without actions?
Did we forget the future`s in the making?
Rules may be bent,
But they`re overdue for breaking.
Open your eyes, stand up and believe,
Throw off the chains, For once be free.
Let go of this so-called freedom bedtime story,
The only free ones have built empires on two bit lies and blood
money.
Let go of this so-called freedom bedtime story,
The oldest new war, under the radar,
Is fought in city streets and back alleys.
