SHOOTING SOLDIERS

Fighting words may fly the fields
But you're not really telling me how you feel
Sounds amplify from your vocal chords
Loud as exploding bombs of both world wars

Battling back and forth like Shooting Soldiers
Battling back and forth like Shooting Sodiers

Taking things too personal can make your little words more Tragical
Think of what you're saying hearing but not listening

Pulling triggers at your enemy
Empty words coming out of you and me
Following commands of military
Snipers aiming at them ruthlessly
Bullets and grenades will fly across
We don't seem to know what it really costs

Battling back and forth like Shooting Soldiers
Battling back and forth like Shooting Soldiers

P.O.W. and AWOL
Bloody Body Bags another soldier falls
Think of what we're saying
We're hearing but not listening

Battling back and forth like Shooting Soldiers
Battling back and forth like Shooting Soldiers
Battling back and forth like Shooting Soldiers
Battling back and forth like Shooting Soldiers

Smoky fields of tragedy
Mass destruction it don't have to be
Forgiveness of thy enemies
Lets make peace and harmony
For you and me
For you and me
For you and me
For you and me

Flying words may fly across the fields
But you're not really telling me how you fell
