Heres mine:

Blood Red, White & Blue

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

so come test me, so come break me,
so come on intoxicate me with hands tied behind my back,
I fight and wait for you to strike

a new problem we can’t stop them,
we’re outnumbered and uncautioned,
a rally cry rings out into the night

so pride yourself on what you are,
and hold them all to words they can’t take back,
I’ve seen a place (it comes) to me in dreams where fires die
but light still shines for us to see

what did you have to say?
give me your logic, your definition,
the words you twist to justify your position of mass starvation
and blind airstrikes,
every problem is solved with a fight

peace won’t be found, til we’re underground,
as long as we live without a sound

so pride yourself on what you are,
and hold them all to words they can’t take back,
I’ve seen a place (it comes) to me in dreams where fires die
but light still shines for us to see

would God bless a murder of the innocents?
would God bless a war based on pride?
would God bless a money-hungry government? no.

would God bless our ineffective court system?
God bless the sweatshops we run.
God bless America.
God bless America.

The reason i love this song, the band is a combonation of Tim’s Vocals, and the political content and amazing lyrics in every song.

"From Heads Unworthy"

We are the children you reject and disregard
These aching cries come from the bottom of our hearts
You cant disown us now, we are your own flesh and blood
We dont disappear just because your eyes are shut, now tell me

Love
Loss
Like a bullets path
Tear
Through
The cavity of my chest
Lights
Out
Because the fuse has blown

As your castles crumble slowly
We watch them fall
The crown slips from heads unworthy
As we take control

This is the family that we crossed or never had
This is a war that was lost the day that it began
Because its the race we run, but it keeps us at the start
Its the song I sung from the bottom of heart, thats how we

Read
You
Like a polygraph
Not
One
Single bone in your back
Own
Up
To how you let us down

As your castles crumble slowly
We watch them fall
The crown slips from heads unworthy
As we take control

Except for you and me, love
Everyone is the same, we know
But if too live, we have to be numb
Id rather know the pain, Id rather know
This happens almost never
But it happened once to me
And this will never be same
The ends we seam together

Im not after fame and fortune
Im after you
When Ive served my time I swear I will come for you

As your castles crumble slowly
We watch them fall
The crown slips from heads unworthy
Right on to ours, but Im after you
