The New National Anthem

The New National Anthem - Strata

Written by：Ryan Hernan

O say

Can you see

By the dawn's early light

We get 'em young

Give 'em guns and ship 'em off to fight

While the rocket's red glare

Is keeping everyone scared they say just relax

Put your trust in me and

You can sit back and watch the war on your screen

The country's run by lunatics they're picking up their pens

Writing themselves into revelation

This is how it's gonna end

Well I tried hard to bite my tongue

Like a good American

But they recruited my little brother

And they're shipping off my friends

Broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight

You know those who stand to gain are not the ones who

Sacrifice

Watching bombs burst in air

From a comfortable chair

They just say in God we trust

And God trusts in greed

Yeah as long as they never show real blood

On T V

I'm not sorry if this makes you mad

In fact I hope this wakes you up

'Cause you'll never see what's going on with your eyes so tightly

Shut

There are too many unanswered questions

From the towers in New York

To the lies leading up to another corporate sponsored war

Well I'll support the troops by asking what they're really fighting for

And I think that's more patriotic

Than flying a flag from my front

Porch

Come on

Let's go out and start a fight

'Cause you know two wrongs always make a right

Come on

Let's go out and start a fight

'Cause you know two wrongs never make a right

Come on

Let's go out and start a fight

'Cause you know two wrongs always make a right

Come on

Let's go out and start a fight

'Cause you know two wrongs

Never make a right
