Rise Against - Hero Of War

Nathan Crain I use this song to describe my military career to others who ask about it. I cannot tell them the horrors, the feelings, the dark times, or the good times. How I almost took the life of an 8 year old boy and fully covered by the rules of engagement. How I wanted to be the hero to protect my family from terrorists and being called an invader who kills families. Our hearts were in the right place, we were just brain washed with patriotism. I can’t tell them that young people die to push the agenda of a few elite and it has always been this way. I can only utter 4 words before I start the million mile stare and tears roll down my face... “just watch this video“.
