Analysis of War thinkin'



All I think about is war,
Dead bodies for miles on end,
Relatives staring in disgust,
You can't do nothin' about it,

Stop asking questions,
I don't wanna answer,
You don't wanna know,
The less you know the better,

Enter and be shot,
Leave and feel guilt,
Stay and feel judged,
Talk and be shot down
