Can't believe I will live forever
As I try to pretend
Dead and gone are my kin and I know
That I will follow suit

Feel no pain but I won't go on
Tell me now what's going on

They all try to control our thinking
They sway the purple heart
When we're gone
No such piece of metal
Will ease our families' pain

(It's always been like that. The ones declaring war
Are not the ones who fight, are not the ones who suffer,
are not the ones who die. They are blind)

Heroes we will be, that's what they tell us
I won't believe their propaganda
For a higher goal we're used like pawns
We are the ones, ohh, ohh

Kill for life
No time to think it over
Or you're the next in line
Constant fear, but no chance to show it
No time for your last prayer

We all fight for a higher goal
What it is no one's ever told

Left behind all the former heroes
No sign of thankfulness
Can't forget what I had to witness
I am a different man

(What we're fighting for?
Honour, glory, our country, our families?
In the end, we are alone.
Left alone with what we have witnessed and done)

Heroes we will be, that's what they tell us
I won't believe their propaganda
For a higher goal we're used like pawns
We are the ones, ohh, ohh

(We will be forgotten, our bodies are rotting)
Offering our sons
Hoping that they'll make us proud
(Heroes in advance, it all make so no sense)
Years spent in pain
Praying to see them again

No one understands what we're going through
But everyone judges what our sons do
Better serve our country than end up in the gutter
They say and that's what they will do
