And bury the ashes of innnocence.
I want to stare you in the face,
As you pull the trigger.
You don't have to watch
As they scream and cry.
While the uranium burns
Away everything they had.
Operation Independence and Liberation.
Bleeding thru the line just to die.
Raise your voice as you march on.
Gathering dirt and casings
In the tiny rubber crevices of the march.
But it's not a march,
It's a parade.
And after it's over everyone will hate those that participated.

Ashes of Innocence

Topic: war

Let's not beat around the Bush,
And bury the ashes of innnocence.
I want to stare you in the face,
As you pull the trigger.
You don't have to watch
As they scream and cry.
While the uranium burns
Away everything they had.
Operation Independence and Liberation.
Bleeding thru the line just to die.
Raise your voice as you march on.
Gathering dirt and casings
In the tiny rubber crevices of the march.
But it's not a march,
It's a parade.
And after it's over everyone will hate those that participated.

I know what PNAC is. I would've just dismissed it as a conspiracy theory is Ted Koppel didn't do a thing on it on Nightline. Spooky stuff.
