lyrics

V1

You’re not happy, You’re not well
Make it better, flowers to smell
It’s not working out, who’s to blame?
Other people? They’re just the same

Who put that there? The seeds of hate
Those who rule, & their running mates
In this time, of the protest vote
It’s all mirrors & smoke

That’s when they pounce, off your fear
Off your hate, on your tears
You vote for them, sick of the same
DisIllusioned now, their time to rein

You’re close, but that’s not the one
Guess again, It could be fun

See them for what they are
See yourself from a far

See others like you and me

Chorus

The Secret War
The War of One
The War of One
Will never be done

The Secret War
The War of One
Monies to be made
Selling guns

The Secret War
The War of One
When the voted got rich
The War was won

The Secret War
The War of One
The War of One
Will never be done
Your right to choose
Your right to muse

See others like you and me


V2

“We’re just the same, you & I”
Dressed to kill, as an average guy
“I’ll make it better, I’ll make it right
Vote for me, I’ll win your fight”

“I’ll win your fight”, you never had
I’ll make up lies to make you mad
Trust in me, you’ve tried the rest
Read my lips, I’m the best

Distract your mind, confuse your thoughts
The enemy is close, is what you bought
You need these things, the things I sell
To protect your family & yourself

It’s what they do & have always done
Their fuel is fear, their conscience numb
They name their price, because they can
& from the beginning, that’s been their plan


Chorus
