No Harmony
No Harmony
Is there a reason
that can be understood,
why we must fight
against brotherhood.
Was there ever a time
that I became we
and togeather all lived
in harmony?
Tell me a place
where our men fight
Knowing they'll
come home each night.
Wouldn't you think
A lesson was learned
in fighting for land
that was only returned?
What was the sence
To the Vietnam war
except that our men
Died for no cause.
Politics rule, Presidents lie
Show me the honor
in the way
our men died.
On 1-27-73
A truce was signed, Oh, victory
The U.S. had won and the treaty assured,
the release of all, prisoner's of war.
This is not true
From what I've been told
By eyes that had witnessed
the horrors of old.
And what about all,
the MIA's that they know
when will they tell us
they'll never come home?
