Government
We applaud our troops
Who went to war
Fighting for our freedom
But why’d they have to go you ask
Well that’s a question
Still unanswered
Why did we bomb innocent lives
over in japan?
Why did our grandparents
Have to die
Shedding the blood
If innocent men
“But what is blood for, if not to shed?”
That’s a quote from Stephen King
And yes it may be true
What have they done to us?
That we haven’t done too
We sit in pews
And pray to a God not even sure if he exists
Through all the pain and suffering in the world
Surely he would stop it
Right?
But he didn’t, did he?
Who went to war
