Betrayal, I peel away the days Medals are useless, Uncle Sam's forgotten me I'm not important, no one will ever come I'll never be found, God get me out of this hell Nuclear battlefields energized Cold wars are heating up again The tensions mounting People lift up your fists in revenge The stage is set Who will be the first to blink? We can't go to war Remember that "Vietnam thing" A peace at any price With a gun to your head bang, bang Weakness runs in your family Oh what runs in mine is death This is your five minute warning Burn all of your cla*sified documents And if cooler heads don't prevail First strike from a political dead man {Appeasement only makes the aggressor more aggressive He understands only one language, action And he respects only one word, force No sign of them stopping, no time for back channel communiques We need all the help we can get Air strikes and invasions, retaliate, I say The will of good men can not counter the terrible strain of war} Blackmail the universe with the greatest of calamities Awaken those sleeping giants in the dust of the ground With their skin destroyed, unjust to innocence Lawful possessor of the world's last twenty-four hours Terror and ugliness reveal what death really means And in hatred you'll see men as they really are If chosen over heaven, earth will have been for them All along, only another region of hell
