Collateral Damage
Hidden sun
Broken land
Haunted dreams
Trembling hands
Our spirits crushed
The fight decided
We walk through the fields
Where blood and bone
Lay ignited
Slave, Servant,
Animal and scum
These be the names
They gave everyone
Void of compassion,
Mercy and respect
They beat us through
Despite how we wept
And late at night
Fueled by lust
They came at leisure
And defiled all of us
And yet somehow
We find strength to stand
Looking to you
To hold out your hand
But why should you
Leave the warmth of your family
Or the shelter of your home
To save a stranger
Only the media has known?
And it is through this reasoning
That you loaded the gun
That they use to abuse
Rights we never won
