Survivor Guilt lyrics

"What are you talking about? America isn't going to be destroyed"

"Never? Rome was destroyed, Greece was destroyed, Persia was destroyed, Spain was destroyed. All great countries are destroyed. Why not yours? How much longer do you really think your own country will last? Forever?"

Block the entrances, close the doors

Seal the exits cause this is war

All gave some, some gave all

But for what I wanna know

Carry on, don't mind me

All I gave was everything

And yet you ask me for more

Fought your fight

Bought your lie

And in return I lost my life

What purpose does this serve?

A folded flag, a purple heart

A family all but torn apart

And I fought with courage to preserve

Not my way of life but yours

Carry on, don't mind me

All I gave was everything

And yet you ask me for more

Fought your fight

Bought your lie

And in return I lost my life

What purpose does this serve?

The cowards preach from pedestals

With words like courage and resolve

But what they meant was fuck them all

Cause freedom isn't free

They send our daughters and our sons

To deserts under burning suns

A sacrificial slaughtering

To fill the pockets of the weak

An artificial enemy

Are we so easily deceived?

They carry on

"You're a shameful opportunist! What you don't understand is that it's better to die on your feet than to live on your knees."

"You have it backwards. It's better to live on your feet than to die on your knees. I know"

Don't carry on

Just walk away

How many more sent to their graves

In this lesson ignored?

I fought your fight

Bought your lie

And in return I lost my life

What purpose does this serve?

What purpose did I serve?
