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 |
