Friendly Fire

Oh so young and far from home
They only get one life
They were told it's just a game
There would be no need to fight
Seemed quite real though yesterday
When we got blown away
By friendly fire
Giving orders from a far
They're safe and sound who cares
If a few lives are expendable
As long as it's not theirs
Wonder would they say the same
If they got blown away
By friendly fire
By friendly fire
Sending back photographs of war
I thought you might need some of that
To remind you of what it is like
To be on the other side of
Friendly fire
They turn and look away
As if they always knew
All their empty words
Can't eclipse the truth - that's okay
Even if they'll never take the blame
At least put me to rest
Give me back my name
Wonder would they'd stillagree
To risk their life expectancy
If they'd been standing next to me
And blown away by friendly fire
By friendly fire
