With tears in her eyes
A mother hugs her son
Be brave she says
Another war has just begun
Right out of high school
He's 18 years old
There are things awaiting him
that he's never been told
He's going to a foreign land
to fight someone else's fight,
and he's convinced by politicians,
that what he's doing is right
A father hugs his Daughter,
he doesn't know it will be the last time.
She wants to be a Medic,
and fight behind enemy lines
She says she owes it to her country,
for being able to live free,
but she has no idea how deadly
this senseless war will be
They're just boys and girls,
soon to become men and women
Fighting for so called freedom
Never to come home again
You thought you were fighting for your country
But you were really fighting for your lives
At the time you didn't know
You were being fed a bunch of lies
But does DC care what happens to them
Yeah right, I don't think so
So don't ask any questions
Just put your uniform on and go
Another war another
Another senseless fight
Don't try to tell me
It will make the world alright
They're just boys and girls
soon to become men and women
Fighting for so called "freedom"
Never to come home again
You thought you were fighting for your country
But you were fighting for your lives
At the time you didn't know
You were being fed a bunch of lies
