    Yeah right?

    Hmmm, just re-search for it. Your link might be different,



    Hero Of War is by Rise Against. Pretty cool lyrics and video

    He said, “Son,
    Have you see the world?
    Well, what would you say
    If I said that you could?
    Just carry this gun and you’ll even get paid.”
    I said, “That sounds pretty good.”

    Black leather boots
    Spit-shined so bright
    They cut off my hair but it looked alright
    We marched and we sang
    We all became friends
    As we learned how to fight

    A hero of war
    Yeah that’s what I’ll be
    And when I come home
    They’ll be damn proud of me
    I’ll carry this flag
    To the grave if I must
    Because it’s flag that I love
    And a flag that I trust

    I kicked in the door
    I yelled my commands
    The children, they cried
    But I got my man
    We took him away
    A bag over his face
    From his family and his friends

    They took off his clothes
    They pissed in his hands
    I told them to stop
    But then I joined in
    We beat him with guns
    And batons not just once
    But again and again

    A hero of war
    Yeah that’s what I’ll be
    And when I come home
    They’ll be damn proud of me
    I’ll carry this flag
    To the grave if I must
    Because it’s flag that I love
    And a flag that I trust

    She walked through bullets and haze
    I asked her to stop
    I begged her to stay
    But she pressed on
    So I lifted my gun
    And I fired away

    The shells jumped through the smoke
    And into the sand
    That the blood now had soaked
    She collapsed with a flag in her hand
    A flag white as snow

    A hero of war
    Is that what the see
    Just medals and scars
    So damn proud of me
    And I brought home that flag
    Now it gathers dust
    But it’s a flag that I love
    It’s the only flag I trust

    He said, “Son, have you seen the world? Well what would you say, if I said that you could?”
