Upon just whose liberty exactly does it stand
Looks like I'm gonna have to go relearn my history
Yet again
You're my smallpox blanket in the summertime
You're a gateway drug on a Friday night
But I know your love is true
Because you told me so
Because you told me so
Is this what my grandpa was fighting for
Is this what my children will be known for
For a Smallpox blanket in the summertime
You're a gateway drug on a Friday night
But I know your love is true
Because you told me so
You never told me..
Edison killed elephants and dogs in the street
You only told me about a kite and some lightning
Not the slaves or the genocide
You said we were GOOD guys
This land's not our land if we stole it
With a smallpox blanket in the summertime
A gateway drug on a Friday night
But I know your love is true
Because you told me so
Because you told me so
Because you told me so
We were Cowboys and Indians, Soldiers
On a mission to play,
One of our favorite games
With our fake knives, Plastic bayonets, Gun fights
We pretended to kill
Like they did in the film
When one day, While studying
John Wayne, As the smoke finally cleared
The camera drew near
To a face on the side I'd been cheering against
He was gasping for air with a hole in his chest
Then everything changed and I could not forget
And that was the first time I understood death
That was the moment when I realized
I didn't know where they'd go when they died
I pictured their parents,Their children, their wives
And suddenly lost all desire to fight
Envoys, Late night drone attacks
Young boys, Wired up to explode
Across an ocean I'm told
Anyway we got to saved now
Go to church, Live by faith now
Sing of mercy and grace
And how heaven forgave
But it's a little confusing, Which cheek should I turn
When you said love your enemy, What the prophets here heard
Is you should try to love most of them most of the time
Unless they should threaten your way of life
I admire the bravery on either side
For there is no greater love than when one gives his life
For another
But is this what it means to be free
Is this what it means to be free
The only thing more dangerous than the actions of evil men is the indifference of GOOD men
I hope that by the time you are old enough to drive
That I have some better news for you, see a brighter side
I hope that when you graduate, we still have gasoline
Even if our cars recharge, I hope we don't use up one more thing
But I promise you
I'll always tell the truth
No matter what
I owe that much to you
I hope we learn to get along, and find a better way to fight
Hope we grow another atmosphere, clone what's endangered back to life
I hope that when you want to see the world, there is still a world to see
And I promise you
I'll always tell the truth
No matter what
I owe that much to you
I hope that by the time I die, I've passed on all I can
I know we'll make some memories, son I hope you understand
I promise you I'll always tell the truth,
Even if it breaks my heart ;
I owe that much to you
Only the truth can set you free
Only the truth can set you free
Only the truth can set you free
So be true
Only the truth can set you free
Only the truth can set you free
Only the truth can set you free
So be true
Only the truth can set you free
Only the truth can set you free
Only the truth can set you free
So be true
Only the truth will set you free
Only the truth will set you free
Only the truth will set you free
My Love
