The architects of war has spoken once again We must defend democracy It's time for payback to the ones they call their friends To please the weapon industries And there you stand Ready to die for freedom Man, a simple man Dying for shady reasons You follow orders Off you go to foreign shores They call you to protect and serve Licence to murder on the right side of the law The country's set on red alert Kill, kill or get killed Nobody to hold on to Hell, everyday hell Torture and hate surround you Why die for a lie Die in a war Dying for something not worth dying for Why die for a lie The war is won But still you fight on foreign fields While everything around you dies Cry, inside you cry Mentally hurt and shattered Dead, emotionally dead Survival is all that matters Why die for a lie Die in a war Dying for something not worth dying for Why die for a lie And when you're coming home You still hear the screaming You're suffering alone You still feel the pain Why die for a lie Die in a war Dying for something not worth dying for Why die for a lie Die in a war Why die for a lie
