A cool song from 1986 that is still very relevant today...
THE THE - "Sweet Bird of Truth"
6 o'clock in the morning and I'm the last person in this plane still awake
Y'know I can almost smell the blood washing against the shores
Of this land that can't forget its past
Oh the wind that carries this plane is the wind of change
Heaven sent - and hell bent
Over the mountain tops we go just like all the other GI Joes
EE-AY-EE-AY - Adios!
This is your captain calling - with an urgent warning
We're above the Gulf of Arabia - our altitude is falling
And I can't hold her up - there's no time for thinking
All hands on deck - this bird is sinking
Across the beaches and cranes, rivers and trains
All the money I've made - bodies I've maimed
Time was when I seemed to know
Just like any other GI Joe
Should I cry like a baby or die like a man
While all the planets like wars start joining hands
Oh what a heaven - what a hell
Y'know there's nothing can be done in the whole wide world
I don't know whats wrong or right
I'm just a regular guy with bottled up insides
I ain't ever been to church or believed in Jesus Christ
but I'm praying that Gods with you... when you die.
