Loyal to the Lie

I don't do the politics I'm paid to take aim Sometimes I suffer with the climate Like a moth to a flame I do your dirty work behind your back A shock of daylight Or a lighting attack I do your dirty work right up in your face A tour of duty in a waste of space Honour bound to do your bidding Soldiers only sing when they're killing Once more into the sunset Singing our songs and blowing our trumpets Heads held high Raise the battle cry We stay loyal to the lie Until the day we die You piece it together I blow it apart Your'e the one that's clever I'm just led by the heart There are heroes buried here somewhere Their last breath was this mountain air Where couples come to picnic And stretch without a care Couples come to picnic And stretch without a care
