Rise Against - Hero Of War

I don't really know what to say.

I'am not a nazi. I show those flags because they fit perfectly. We German's once followed this flag blindly whitout thinking. That was one of the biggest mistakes we've ever made.

A World War is something terrible, so never let it happen again.

See? I don't know what to say because my english sucks-.- Sorry about that :P

Lyrics:

He said, "Son,
Have you seen the world?
Well, what would you say
If I said that you could?
Just carry this gun, you'll even get paid."
I said, "That sounds pretty good."

Black leather boots
Spit-shined so bright
They cut off my hair but it looked alright
We marched and we sang
We all became friends
As we learned how to fight

A hero of war
Yeah, that's what I'll be
And when I come home
They'll be damn proud of me
I'll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it's flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

I kicked in the door
I yelled my commands
The children, they cried
But I got my man
We took him away
A bag over his face
From his family and his friends

They took off his clothes
They pissed in his hands
I told them to stop
But then I joined in
We beat him with guns
And batons not just once
But again and again

A hero of war
Yeah that's what I'll be
And when I come home
They'll be damn proud of me
I'll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it's flag that I love
And a flag that I trust

She walked through bullets and haze
I asked her to stop
I begged her to stay
But she pressed on
So I lifted my gun
And I fired away

And the shells jumped through the smoke
And into the sand
That the blood now had soaked
She collapsed with a flag in her hand
A flag white as snow

A hero of war
Is that what they see
Just medals and scars
So damn proud of me
And I brought home that flag
Now it gathers dust
But it's a flag that I love
It's the only flag I trust

He said, "Son, have you seen the world?
Well what would you say
If I said that you could?"

@bloodydiamont i'm part german, but i don't know what your saying. could you please repeat that in english

[MisterValhalla]

I think you really worked out the sence of the song, cause it s about nationalism and patriotism.

@ bloddydiamant with that name you seem to me like a nazi! think about the stoty of that diamants and you shouldn t use it as a name for youtube ...

also it s stupid to say that somone else made sth wrong because nearly the whole nation became weird!

War is unfortunately a necessity of a civilised society, peace has always been won at the point of the sword.

@bloodydiamont

Klar alles was dann geschehen ist weil jeder dachte er müsse nun mitmischen ist schrecklich und nicht nur der Fehelr eines einzelnen mannes sondern wegen der gesamten Menschheit und em natürlichjne menschlichen denken!

@bloodydiamont

Ich bin kein Nazi aber Hitler war nicht so fanatisch krank wie viel darüber erzählt und hochgestapelt wird um unser Volk noch dreckiger aussehen zu lassen gesteuert von den medein und unseren "freunden" den allierten... Hitler wolllte vorerst einzigst und allein die Zwänge des Versaillers Vertrags sprengen und das Land (Polen, Weimar (grob) ) zurückerobern was uns im ersten weltkrieg zuunrecht gestohklen wurde!

[TheRingburg]

Super Video!

Man muss sich erstmal vorstellen, wieviele Soldaten damals ihr Leben ließen (nicht nur deutsche, sondern alle), nur wegen eines Mannes, der ein Gehirn eines Dinosauriers besaß!Und dann kommen noch Milliarden Opfer der Zivilbevölkerung hinzu (nicht nur Juden, auch Deutsche, Franzosen, Briten, Polen, usw.).Nur eines muss man noch sagen: Unserer hat nur scheiße gemacht, dass weiß man heute, aber die Atombomben waren auch unnötig und überflüssig und kostete viele Tote.
