Lies Flying

Lies flying Truth dying People too Electrifying Give me back My country lost Play a hymn To what it cost Colors gone And sides were taken Will this end In banner shaken Gray was gray And blue was blue No tone between Nor greater hue Tell me now Just who is right That I might see An end in sight North be north And south just that Why then be This greatest spat
