Survivor Guilt

"Block the entrances Close the door Seal the exits Because this is war All gave some Some gave all But for what I want to know [Chorus] 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 I fought with courage to preserve Not my way of life, but yours [Chorus] The cowards preach from pedestals With words and courage and resolve But one thing that'll fuck 'em all 'Cause is freedom isn't free They send our daughters and our sons To deserts under burning suns A sacrificial slaughter to fill The pockets of the weak An artificial enemy Are we so easily deceived? Come, 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? "
