Vietnam
such a battle ground
covered your children from a napalm cloud
guerrilla fight moving at night
keep you head away from enemy sight
(x2)
the Viet cong walk the Ho Chi Minh in low cloud cover
and moon illumination
a life lost means a war is never won
still they murdered themselves for communism
fight lights up the skies
the NVA fight the USA
that are eligible for combat pay
we had to kill you in order to save
that's what they fucking say
and in 76 they play pick up sticks
with both sides bodies of war
“The lord will see us through?”
Death waits for
Fire lights up the skies
death waits for
fight lights up the skies
freedom rings loud
for those denied freedom
for those that stand proud
for anyone at all
(x2)
communism
execution
a fight for freedom
for anyone at all
search and destroy
white winged deployed
its all the same for you
blood runs dry
while children cried
while children died
King stood up as a prominent figure
while the fighters rested their hands a trigger
fighting for something they believed to be bigger
and Nixon called for vietnamization
like some type of liberation
its no fucking consolation
DEATH WAITS FOR NO ONE
light up the skies
c'mon
light up the skies
