Lyrics for You Are Not A Hero

You crown yourself the savior Your sermon carved in bullet scars Disorder and regression With God upon the nation You were the mask of justice With hands painted red A saint holding a rifle While nameless lie dead You are not a hero And we don't need one The glory that you bleed At the point of a gun No peace in a trigger No love in a martyr's cry You kill for something broken And call it justified You wear the mask of justice With hands painted red A saint holding a rifle While nameless lie dead You are not a hero And we don't need one The glory that you bleed At the point of a gun Marching in the name of Life But your eyes are full of war You are not a hero And we don't need one The glory that you bleed At the point of a gun Marching in the name of life But your eyes are full of war
