My Country

Was it just a dream?

Were you so confused?

Was it just a giant leap of logic?

Was it the time of year

That makes a state of fear?

Methods were their motives for the action

And did I hear you say?

My country, right or wrong

My country, right or wrong

My country, right or wrong

Did you save your face?

Did you breach your faith?

Women, there were children at the shelter

Now who can stop the hail

When human senses fail?

There was never any warnin', no escape

And did I hear you say?

My country, right or wrong

My country, oh, so strong

My country, right or wrong

My country, right or wrong

My country, goin' wrong

My country, right or wrong

I hear you say the truth must take a beatin'

The flag of camouflage for your deceivin'

'Cause I know (I know), I know, it's written on your soul

I know we all make mistakes

This is not a case of blurred vision

It's a case of black holes

Pocket holes, soul holes

And did I hear you say?

My country, right or wrong

My country, oh, so strong

My country, right or wrong

My country, right or wrong

My country's goin' wrong

My country, right or wrong

My country, my country, my country
