Survivor Guilt

Block the entrances, close the doors

Seal the exits 'cause this is war

All gave some, some gave all

But for what?

I want to know

Carry on

Don't mind me

All I gave was everything

And yet you ask me for more

Fought your fight

Bought your lie

And in return I lost my life

What purpose does this serve?

A folded flag, a purple heart

A family all but torn apart

And I fought with courage to preserve

Not my way of life, but yours

Carry on

Don't mind me

All I gave was everything

And yet you ask me for more

Fought your fight

Bought your lie

In return I lost my life

What purpose does this serve?

The cowards preach from pedestals

With words like courage and resolve

But what they meant was fuck 'em all

'Cause freedom isn't free

They send our daughters and sons

To deserts under burning suns

Sacrificial slaughtering

To fill the pockets of the weak

An artificial enemy

Are we so easily deceived?

They carry on

Don't carry on

Just walk away

How many more sent to their graves?

In this lesson ignored

I fought your fight

Bought your lie

And in return I lost my life

What purpose does this serve?

What purpose did I serve?
