Stading tall in all your shame
trying to defend your tarnished name.
Stars and stripes waving free
just won't wake up to reality.

Out on the battlefield our flag soldiers proudly yeild.
Yet to some this country represents
the death of the innocent
all because of war.

Under our powerufl wave
terrorists hide within its wake.
In the shadow of our saftey
killers wait securely.

Wars errupt within our world's cage,
politicians form unserpassed rage
taken out upon the innocence
yet we continue to produce helpless kids.

Wepons of death we continuously generate,
but we anniliate anyone else who tires to create.
Confusing warnings of terror arise
powerful tears surge through our hardened eyes.

Standing tall in all your shame
trying to defend your tarnished name.
Stars and stripes waving free
just won't wake up to realaity.
