You wanted to be a militant, selfless A martyr for liberty As seen on TV Watching while they force feed the silver linings of butchery Inbred god complex tricks you into service of crooks who would harness your eager lives As the stacks pile high They fuel the fires with the deified Let me show you who benefits when they use desperate kids as delegates to barter foreign oil Let me tell you a little bit about who has no problems watching you falling on your swords Now let me ask you if you can figure out who these selfish pigs' promises are really working for Begging for a taste of hand-delivered fate Fueled by self-righteous hate that's been festering subliminally At first you were thirsty for blood but now you're just confused The cries of innocence can't buy more freedom for you A flash and clarity reveals the writing's on the shells The closing bell says their bets were hedged on you The manipulated man Just trying to stay ahead But the profits go to them With wide eyes you realize you're a pawn of corruption Let me show you who benefits when they use the dirty tricks of capitalists to press gang the youth Let me tell you the story of a man who spent his life sowing strife in the name of half truths Now let me ask you if you can figure out who their pork barrel promises are really going to It's not what you were told And you didn't know As soon as you go you'll be a hero It's not what you were told And you didn't know As soon as you go You'll be a hero You'll be a hero You'll be a hero Let me show you how this system of abuse grinds you down and spits you out as if you had nothing left to lose Let me tell you what you won't hear on the news - their helping hands are better than yours at tying a noose Now let me ask you why you won't refuse to be lured into fantasies of deifying the ones out fighting
