Back From The Front |
| We watched from the hillsides |
| They couldn’t be saved |
| We felt so helpless |
| They couldn’t be saved |
| The truth about war |
| It’s a total waste |
| It’s the ultimate drug |
| It’s the ultimate taste |
| Back from the front |
| Oh oh oh |
| Back from the front |
| Oh oh oh |
| When you see the white light |
| Cover your eyes |
| Brush off the dust |
| And straighten your tie |
| Back from the front |
| The battle rages |
| Bursts into flames |
| Young men fall |
| Too many to name |
| The guilty are the innocent |
| And the misplaced blame |
| We’re too numb to know the difference |
| We’re too numb to feel the shame |
| Back from the front |
| Oh oh oh |
| Back from the front |
| Oh oh oh |
| When you see the white light |
| Cover your eyes |
| Brush off the dust |
| And straighten your tie |
| Back from the front |
| Battle still rages |
| Brothers take sides |
| Sons of betrayal |
| Abandon and hide |
| The crowd looks upward |
| One looks down |
| A blow to the temple |
| Knocked to the ground |
| We lost all hope in the struggle |
| We lost all touch |
| Beware of the merciless noise |
| And the choking air |
| But war is just a symptom |
| Of a far deeper pain |
| That strains at the spirit |
| Again and again |
| Back from the front |
| Oh oh oh |
| Back from the front |
| Oh oh oh |
| It’s a rush of power |
| When hate runs wild |
| The blood runs holy |
| With the reconciled |
| Back from the front |
| Back from the front |
| Back from the front |
| Back from the front |
| Back from the front (Oh oh) |
| Back from the front |
| Back from the front |
| Back from the front |
| Back from the front |
