Lyrics
DEFIANCE - Into The DustHe went to war at 19
Talks about all the places he's been
Saw all his friends drop down to the dust
Brags of his medals now covered in rust
But now he's an old man drunk and lame
Just a used pawn in the war machine's game
The fighting, the killing, what was it for?
The cycle goes on with yet another war
1,2,3...Follow me
4,5,6...Land of the free
1,2,3...What was it for
4,5,6...Another war
Sitting at home now lost in his booze
Another statistic on the evening news
Promised to care for him or that's what they said
Suicidal thoughts running through his head
Flips the channel sees the progress of the war
Hobbles to the kitchen and opens a drawer
Presidents voice speaking of the strife
The last thing he hears as he takes his own life
1,2,3...Follow me
4,5,6...Land of the free
1,2,3...What was it for
4,5,6...Another war
On the brink of yet another war
We should learn from the ghosts of wars past
1,2,3...Follow us
4,5,6...Into the dust
1,2,3...What was it for
4,5,6...Another war
He went to war at 19
Talks about all the places he's been
Saw all his friends drop down to the dust
Brags of his medals now covered in rust
But now he's an old man drunk and lame
Just a used pawn in the war machine's game
The fighting, the killing, what was it for?
The cycle goes on with yet another war
1,2,3...Follow me
4,5,6...Land of the free
1,2,3...What was it for
4,5,6...Another war
1,2,3...Follow us
4,5,6...Into the dust
1,2,3...What was it for
4,5,6...Another war
