Our Country

Laid before your eyes,
Sat by your feet.
You can see them but you still ignore,
Ignore the pain they've caused. 
Pretend it's not to better yourself,
Your countries kind defeat.

Laid before your eyes, 
Sat by your feet. 
Can you feel those cold hands 
wrap around your neck,
The death around you. 
The pain is almost unique. 

Laid before your eyes,
Sat by your feet.
Let's hear the gory details beneath,
The blood, the guts.
Scaring from the skin to the mind,
Can you see through the scheme.

Laid before your eyes, 
Sat by your feet. 
Explosions shutter the streets,
Unluckily for some it's more than noise.
I bet you'll sleep tight,
For tonight. You're dead inside.
