Honestly

There’s not an honest one among us now
We missed the pass, we crashed the curve
There’s no return

Judging by the life you lead
You wear your blinders and just agree
You just agree

And wait for them to pack up and just to go
There’s a thousand soldiers lined up in row
You wear the flag, escort them along their way
Into your fight, while safely home you stay

There’s not an honest one among us now
I’ve said the words and that bridge is burned
There’s no return

They’ll judge us by the lives we lead
Where pain and suffering’s all painted green
It’s all painted green

You wait for them to pack up and just to go
There’s a thousand soldiers lined up in row
You wave the flag, salute them along their way
Cause you’ve learned to live, to fight another day

There’s not an honest one among us now
They smashed your will and they broke your nerve
There’s no return

They’ll judge us by the lies we leave
Where fear and silence was the main decree
Was the main decree

You wait for them to pack up and just to go
There’s a thousand soldiers lined up in row
You fold the flag and cover another grave
And convince yourself, they didn’t die in vain
