Survivor Guilt Songtext

What are you talking about?
America is not gonna be destroyed
Never?
Rome was destroyed
Greece was destroyed
Persia was destroyed
Spain was destroyed
All great countries are destroyed
Why not yours?
How much longer do you think your country will last?
Forever?

Block the entrances, close the doors
Seal the exits ′cause this is war
All gave some, some gave all
But for what, I want to know

Carry on
Don't mind me
All I gave was everything
And yet you ask me for more


Fought your fight
Bought your lie
And in return I lost my life
What purpose does this serve?

A folded flag, a purple heart
A family all but torn apart
And I fought with courage to preserve
Not my way of life, but yours

Carry on
Don′t mind me
All I gave was everything
And yet you ask me for more

Fought your fight
Bought your lie
And in return I lost my life
What purpose does this serve?

The cowards preach from pedestals
With words like courage and resolve
But what they meant was fuck them all
Because freedom isn't free


They send our daughters and our sons
To deserts under burning suns
A sacrificial slaughtering to fill the pockets of the weak
An artificial enemy
Are we so easily deceived(?

(Hey, carry on)
You're a shameful opportunist
What you don′t understand is that it′s better to die on your feet than to live on your knees
You had it backwards
It's better to live on your feet than to die on your knees

Go carry on
Just walk away
How many more sent to their graves
In this lesson ignored?

I fought your fight
Bought your lie
And in return I lost my life
What purpose does this serve?
What purpose did I serve?
