We stand alone in the line of fire A storm of flack and grenades We hear the rumble of the war machine Less than a mile away We chase what cant be caught Whether we understand or not Were stained with freedoms red While politicians stay safe in bed We kill for peace you dont understand Ruins of freedom - the blood on our hands We kill for peace the soldiers who fall Were your children not names on a wall We will kill for peace The ground is red and the sky is black We stand together - some wont make it back To live in freedom, we sacrifice life Enforce our values with our bloodstained knives We chase what cant be caught Whether we understand or not Were stained with freedoms red While politicians stay safe in bed We kill for peace you dont understand Ruins of freedom - the blood on our hands We kill for peace the soldiers who fall Were your children not names on a wall Kill for peace Kill for peace We will kill for peace Ten miles of bloodshed for two feet of dirt We bury our dead, and swallow our hurt We battle on through the wind and the rain Dragging ourselves through the fields of the slain We chase what cant be caught Whether you understand or not Were stained with freedoms red While politicians stay safe in bed We kill for peace you dont understand Ruins of freedom - the blood on our hands We kill for peace the soldiers who fall Were your children not names on a wall
