    "....With guns blazing, and hearts stopping, I looked up and said why the hell am I here."
    CD: Jimi Got His Gun

    Story Behind the Song
    Too many people, one of them being me, sat in high school listening to recruiters talk of all the benefits and such of joining the military. "The sign on bonus is great" and crap like that. They never once hear about the battlefield stories and the consequences of your chosen life. No, you dont hear that, you have to read Johnny Got His Gun for that.

    Lyrics
    Tell me now, where do I go from here? I'm sick of flipin channels, sick of faking that your fair. Nauseous goggles on my sick eyes, your a two bit money lovin whore in disguise. Whats with these guys? Everyone dies, and thats ok in your eyes? I wish I had enough to kill you love for blood, and take those innocent lives and give them the life that you took away.

    Uncle Sam wants you to sign up for the fight of his life, a fight without freedom. A global trek of terror thats littered by tears, you can solve HIS problems with your 18 years of lies! For sure he tries to rid the world of HIS problems, he'll fight through your eyes. So tell me why I go to die, for the mess you brought upon yourself, the care my conscious never felt.

    (chorus)
    Dont tell me what to believe! Dont tell me how to die! Forced feelings are wrecking me, and you gotta be rotting inside. Soldier boy do you know why your here? (he's still a boy inside) He tried to mask his fear, but shedding a tear for innocence is fine.

    I tried to find a logical reason, (its tyranical treason thats around the block) attaced to you is a ticking clock, SAY NO!!! I WONT GO!!! think tank playing chess with my life, its not right. SO tell me why I go to die, for the mess you brought upon yourself, the care my conscious never felt.

    (chorus)
