I won't see what you want me to see.
Heroic Soldiers, Nation of Infidels.
No I don't see these,
I see you.
Soldiers are your fingers
with faces,
every one.
The enemy
is what they became
when you declared them so...
A War on Terrorism
is a Hollywood Film
that never
seems
to end.
You're shooting yourself
in the foot
by not telling,
If you did what you said
you'd shoot yourself in the
face
But your cape
is more crucial
than surrender.
We will not see what you want us to see.
"Listen to me Children,"
"Because I SAID so!"
Your distractions cannot hide their cries.
I will not see what you want me to see.
In the way of truth,
I see you.
