In The Name Of

Can you sleep at night
Knowing what you've done?
When you close your eyes,
Do you see the bodies piling up?
In the name of freedom,
In the name of justice,
In the name of the United States;
Under your orders, in your name.
Tell the public another story,
Fight under false pretences.
What good is a war for peace?
Execution of power,
Finish the mess left before.
Kill the masses of the innocent,
In order to slay those unclean.
Creating more hate, more pain.
Fathers, Mothers
Sisters, Brothers
Sons and Daughters
Fighting in the name of peace,
Dying in the name of liberty.
Fighting for your personal agenda.
The bodies pile up in the name of justice.
The public is fed lies,
The world is fed your "superiority",
And all the while their children cry.
And all the while our children die.
And the bodies pile up,
All in the name of Justice.
God Bless America.
