I love my country but it wears a uniform
It speaks with foreign guns
In the background you can almost hear
The sound of interventionAnd I don't know when Liberty fell
But we rang every mission bell
We rang them loud and clearly
For a world that wouldn't listenI don' t want to die
I'm as innocent as anybody
I don' t even know how to spell revolutionaryJesus in the sky
The bullets in the guns
You don't even know
What we mean by repressionBlood is the color of the sunset
You walked into the darkness
I did not hear your last breath
There will not be an inquestThis is not human interest
We danced the dirt with surrender
For our drumbeat
Danced for the balance sheetDied for the kind of lasting peace
That pleases the world's police man
And Fatherland raped Motherhood
And told her it was for the global goodAnd now, we ring the mission bell
To warn their childrenI don' t want to die
I'm as innocent as anybody
I don' t even know how to spell revolutionaryJesus in the sky
The bullets in the guns
You don't even know
What we mean by repressionBlood is the color of the sunset
You walked into the darkness
I did not hear your last breath
There will not be an inquest
This is not human interest
