Hail To The Chief

Denial

I will accept all the hate you sell me

Official

I will believe all the lies you tell me

I'm weak

But you know what's right

You know what's perfect for me

I'll answer with weapons ablaze

I trust you implicitly

New rules

I like your rules – I'll gladly follow your lead

Dress me

In khaki and brown

Those colors look strong on me

Show me the enemy

You say he lives right next door

If you say so he dies

Now that the sky is burning

Lead me to war

Now with a future uncertain

Lead us all to war

After the bullet has sped through our heads

After we sing songs in praise of the dead

We'll sing hail to the chief

Lead me to your war

No shame

I feel no shame in becoming subservient

Guide me

Let me smell blood – the hound dog in me is hellbent

Feed me

A diet of fear – keeping me loyal to you

I'm a child inside

Now that the sky is burning

Lead me to war

Now with a future uncertain

Lead us all to war

After the bullet has sped through our heads

After we sing songs in praise of the dead

We'll sing hail to the chief

Lead me to your war

Paint the sand wet with blood

And satisfy my lust

Erase the history beneath our fear's corrosive rust

Exsanguinate the infidels and treat their wives as whores

I only need one sad excuse

You've led us to your war

True blue

Trust me I'm true – red, white and blue

Through and through

Your foe

I'm not your foe – I've spent my life loyal to you

Why me?

Now I've got questions with your missiles pointing at me

Too late – I die

Now that the sky is burning
