You lay down your life
You never ask why
Should you feel some comfort
For being left here to die
Cross in hand
You battle for the Holy Land
But the fight was lost
Before it ever began
And the life you live
Has been bathed in sin
Isn't that what they tell you?
And this is your redemption
You see yourself
A righteous hero
What kind of things
Have they put into your head?
You'll never know
Before you die
That you'd lay down your life
Just to keep them high
And the soulless eyes
That beg to cry
Your leaders have become
A way to say goodbye
So lay down your guns
Forsake your commands
A martyr for your cause
Is that where you stand?
What happened to your dreams?
What did they do to your life?
Why must they condemn you
For not choosing sides?
