Started out as a local love, nothing really physical

I fell, nice and clean, the way you portrayed yourself to me

Through that screen, I wanted to believe everything

And then this local love went beyond the insular

You took me for an eight year ride, though you were never by my side

I always wanted to believe, now this is what I'm questioning

As if you couldn't tell, I'm mad as hell

I won't forget, so why should I forgive?

Supply me with one reason why, boy?

The war rolled on and on, I left that land, my home

We watched your hair go grey, that stressful, manly shade

You wore it well, no one could tell the situation was hell

But lies shone in your eyes, you were the first in line

To use those bugs up high, the coward's weapon of choice

But you got that winner's smile and you know how to leave 'em moist

We can never know the hands we're in until we feel them grip

Choking off our air supply, but I don't cry, everyday I look, every day I see

That good war music still getting written for me

As if you couldn't tell, I'm mad as hell

I won't forget, so why should I forgive?

No, not as long as we both shall live

As if you couldn't tell, I'm mad as hell

I won't forget, so why should I forgive?

No, not as long as we both shall live

These vital lies just don't come in my size
