Lyrics:
''What are you talking about? America's not gonna be destroyed! '' ''Never? Rome was destroyed, Greece was destroyed, Persia was destroyed. Spain was destroyed. All great countries are destroyed. Why not yours? How much longer do you think your country will last? Forever? '' Block the entrances, close the doors Seal the exits 'cause this is war All gave some, some give all But for what? I wanna know Carry on, don't mind me. All I gave was everything! And yet you ask me for more Fought your fight, bought your lie And in return I lost my life What purpose does this serve? A fallen flag, a purple heart A family all but torn apart! And I fought with courage to preserve Not my way of life but yours! Carry on, don't mind me. All I gave was everything! And yet you ask me for more Fought your fight, bought your lie And in return I lost my life What purpose does this serve? The cowards preach from pedestals With words like courage and resolve But what they meant was "fuck 'em all!" 'cause freedom isn't free They send our daughters and our sons To deserts under burning suns A Sacrificial slaughtering To fill the pockets of the weak An artificial enemy Are we so easily deceived? (They carry on, oh oh oh) "You're a shameful opportunist. What you don't understand is that it's better to die on your feet then to live on your knees" "You have it backwards. it's better to live on your feet then to die on your knees" Don't carry on, just walk away How many more are sent to their graves? In this lesson ignored? I fought your fight, bought your lie And in return I lost my life What purpose does this serve? What purpose did I serve?
