| Parody Written by: | Tommy Turtle |
Bloody photographs
Mounting up as toll increases
Bodies torn in half
Bullets cut them all to pieces
Traces of war
Far away
That didn't work out ri - i - ight
Traces of war...
Ribbons from their chest
Souvenirs of battles weathered
Dog tags from the rest
DOD sends "sorry" letter
Traces of war
Far away
That didn't work out ri - i - ight
Traces of war
With us
Tonight
We close our ey - ey - eyes
And say a prayer
That someday they will find
A way to leave from there
Somewhere
(instrumental)
Traces of hope
In the night
That we can exorcise
These traces of war
From our eyes
Mounting up as toll increases
Bodies torn in half
Bullets cut them all to pieces
Traces of war
Far away
That didn't work out ri - i - ight
Traces of war...
Ribbons from their chest
Souvenirs of battles weathered
Dog tags from the rest
DOD sends "sorry" letter
Traces of war
Far away
That didn't work out ri - i - ight
Traces of war
With us
Tonight
We close our ey - ey - eyes
And say a prayer
That someday they will find
A way to leave from there
Somewhere
(instrumental)
Traces of hope
In the night
That we can exorcise
These traces of war
From our eyes
For the non-US of A: DOD = Department of Defense, which sends letters to the families of those killed in action: "We regret to inform you...." etc.c 2006 Tommy Turtle
