Story behind the song
War is bullshit.
Lyrics
You tow the line
Keep doin what your told
Believing the lies when you know they’re all liars
And all we get is one last backwards glance
At the end
When the sky falls and
We try to hard to do nothing at all
Don’t let them fool ya
The cause is not just
Nothing has changed
They’re still just the war pigs in charge
Leaving us with one last backwards glance
At the end
As they send our children to die and
We try too hard to do nothing at all
(yeats quote)
We’re not the good guys
Killers can’t be good guys
The red won’t wash away
Not that they’re tryin
And all we get is one last backwards glance
As they bathe in our blood
We try to hard to do nothing at all
