There are a lot of perfect reasons
|
To never fight another war
|
There are a lot of perfect questions
|
As to what's worth fighting for
|
There are a lot of perfect fools
|
Who refuse to read the writing on the wall
|
|
But the truth is there are people
|
Who've made it crystal clear
|
That it is their holy mission
|
To destroy all we hold dear
|
They are visibly out searching for the fire
|
To make this towing nation fall
|
|
Now we can just sit back and wait
|
Until they spill more precious blood
|
Or we can seek these cowards out
|
And nip their slaughter in the bud
|
|
Audios sweet home and family
|
I'm off to fight a war that must be won
|
You'll know why I'm going when you see
|
The snow white rows of Arlington
|
|
Every blade of grass is sacred
|
Every headstone is a shrine
|
To somebody who was willing
|
To put existence on the line
|
The liberty we take for granted
|
Was purchased with their patriotic lives
|
|
Are their sleeping spirits restless?
|
Do they listen for the sound?
|
Of the mustering of armies
|
To defend their hallowed ground?
|
Will we rise to the occasion
|
To ensure their legacy survives?
|
|
Through the willows blow soft breezes
|
They are whispering my name
|
Asking did they die for nothing?
|
Aren't I the keeper of the flame?
|
|
Audios sweet home and family
|
Wave goodbye to your Louisiana son
|
You will know why I'm leaving when you see
|
The snow white rows of Arlington
|
|
Audios sweet home and family
|
Wave goodbye to your Louisiana son
|
And if it be my fate you'll find me
|
Proudly sleeping in the snow white,
|
When you see the snow white rows of Arlington
|
