lyrics

Every kid dreams about becoming a war hero,
The glory of being honored, the celebration and the show.
The fame and the glory is a façade that is used,
To detract and lure the stray away from the truth.

Do the kids realize that it’s the hero that dies and the fame comes afterwards?!
Who’s to blame when their life’s not the same, there’s someone who surely knows!

Little kids play war games with imaginary guns,
There isn’t any bloodshed, the realism is gone.
Expand that to a larger scale where friends next to them die,
The sight of mangled bodies being eaten by the flies.

The people don’t gain from political wars, it just destroys their lives,
Families are gone and the pain is prolonged, the profits don’t apply.

Some kids will wise up, others with learn the hard way,
The smart ones will defend their lives while others go astray.
Human life is a gift not to be destroyed,
The horrors of war destroy this gift which can never be replaced.

Isn’t it fun to murder someone for reasons that don’t exist,
I’d only fight for my valuable right of freedom, and that it is it!
For freedom and that is it!
