Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tell me what I'm supposed to think‬
When the bullets start to pour
Lie about some greater good‬
When you ship me off to war‬
Thousand dead on either side‬
Is there no one keeping score‬
I just wanna make it home
When you ship me off to war
[Verse 2]
We at war we don't know what for
They made up a reason behind closed doors
At the end of the season we leave, make an enemy bleed, hit the seashore with the C4
We don't record, we just reload, if you need more it's a cheat code with unlimited rounds
When you hear the sound start hitting the ground
It's time to go make America proud!
But this ain't as fun as what they claim it be
'Cause he ain't from the same place as me
And now the bloodstain stays with me
I'm homesick and I miss my momma
Can't sleep, I'm living with this trauma
I wanna just believe the dogma
But I can't take it much longer
[Verse 3]
Tell me what I'm supposed to think‬
When the bullets start to pour
Lie about some greater good
Thousand dead on either side‬
Is there no one keeping score‬
I just wanna make it home
When you ship me off to war
When you ship me off to war
[Verse 4]
Yeah
[Verse 5]
Watch me spend these billions
Bombing these civilians
Making enemies out of children
Am I the good guy? Am I the villain?
I go back and forth chameleon
My partner next to me
He was 23 when he went out to check the scene
Then he stepped on an IED
Something died inside, when I wondered why they caught him and not me
This shit ain't always what it seem
When they changing the regime
Better wake me from this crazy dream
Living in the war machine
[Verse 6]
Tell me what I'm supposed to think‬
When the bullets start to pour
Lie about some greater good‬
When you ship me off to war‬
Thousand dead on either side
I just wanna make it home
When you ship me off to war
Ship me off to war
Ship me off to war
Ship me off to war
Ship me off to war
[Verse 7]
Joined Uncle Sam as soon as I turned 18 (Oh no, no, no)
Try to wash my hands, never gonna get them clean (Oh no, no, no)
Follow my command, do or die ain't no in between (Oh no, no, no)
Try to wash my hands never gonna get them clean
[Verse 8]
PTSD, PTSD
I might, I might
Fuck around and start World War III
[Verse 9]
Tell me what I'm supposed to think‬
When the bullets start to pour
Lie about some greater good‬
When you ship me off to war‬
Thousand dead on either side‬
Is there no one keeping score‬
I just wanna make it home
When you ship me off to war
