Our Demise

Half truths and whole lies

Simple words cant justify another lie

Another dies and another mother left to cry..

Another night another thousand lives

When will we realize war will be our demise

So unfortunate we cant sacrifice our pride..

Now a land being filled

With the innocent blood we spilled..

What is left to say

When the martyrs are left to their graves

No real understanding of what it is they're dying for..

Freedoms price seems too much to pay

Freedom for you and for me?..

Freedom from this awful tyranny

Consequently a choice has been made

We've paid in full

Now we must accept this rising death toll..

Relative truth has set a barrier down..

It seems that our hate is our only common ground..

With words we make sound

But no real progress made in this escapade..

Cultures set worlds apart,

This has failed from the start our lack of understanding

And respect for those who would choose right to be left..

Our placement has left them faithless a faith only we could break..

How could we expect them to see eye to eye

When we have them face down on their knees
