Love and War

He was nineteen
And landed at Bagram
Scared and all alone
He lost a leg and a girlfriend
Before he got home
And they say all is fair in Love and War
But that aint true its wrong
They send you off to die for us
Forget about you when youre done
He was nineteen in 68
After all this time
That pumpkin boy is now a broken man
Waitin in a VA line
They say all is fair in Love and War
But that aint true its wrong
They ship you out to die for us
Forget about you when youre done
And the nightmares
And hes running scared
Far from home
And he wakes up
From a nightmare
Hes in another one
Hes still not home
They call em decorated heroes
And pin some medals on their chest
Give em a tiny little pension
Could we do much less
They say all is fair in Love and War
But that aint true its wrong
They ship you out to die for us
Forget about you when youre done
They say all is fair in Love and War
But that aint true its wrong
They ship you out to die for us
Forget about you when youre done
They say all is fair in Love and War
But that aint true its wrong
They ship you out to die for us
But forget about you when youre done
