© Copyright by RockYourMusic [Instrumental Guitar Intro] [Verse 1] Graduation gown, picture smile, future stretched out for a mile College dreams and summer nights, never thought of holding rifles tight Then the news came crashing down, borders burning, cities drown Sent a letter, cold and stark, another pawn to fill the dark [Pre-Chorus] They preach of honor, preach of pride, but leave the dying fields behind Just a kid with dreams to chase, caught in a firestorm's burning embrace [Chorus] This is not my war... This is not my battle... I don't give a shit about your dispute. This is not my war... This is not my battle... Fuck you all and your miserable borders. [Instrumental Guitar Break] [Verse 2] Basic training, sweat and sand, turning brothers into a band Faces hardened, hearts turned numb, learning lessons overcome Marched across a foreign land, scorched by sun and shifting sand Enemy faces, just as young, caught in this same, twisted song [Pre-Chorus] This ain't my war, I never signed, for games of power that unwind [Chorus] This is not my war... This is not my battle... I don't give a shit about your dispute. This is not my war... This is not my battle... Fuck you all and your miserable borders. [Instrumental Guitar Break] [Bridge] Screams of battle pierce the night, explosions paint the fading light Letters home, a shaky hand, praying someone understands The weight of life, the weight of fear, wishing I could disappear Just back to that graduation day, when dreams and laughter held their sway [Instrumental Drums Fills & Snare] [Instrumental Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] They preach of honor, preach of pride, but leave the dying fields behind Maybe someday I'll break free, from this nightmare's symphony But the scars will linger on my soul, a story etched to make me whole This ain't my war, this ain't my fight, but the echoes linger through the night [Pre-Chorus] Just a kid with dreams to chase, caught in a firestorm's burning embrace [Chorus] This is not my war... This is not my battle... I don't give a shit about your dispute. This is not my war... This is not my battle... Fuck you all and your miserable borders. [Outro] Fuck you... Fuck you all... Fuck you... Fuck you all... Fuck you... Fuck you all... [Instrumental Guitar Solo] [Instrumental Guitar Solo Fade Out To End] [End]
