for jim

Mindlessly you way a flag
The winds embrace feels like god is with you
to fight your fight, our fight, the good fight right?
but the truth behind those stripes
the lies the stars hide
blindly walking towards disaster
the faith you have, they have in you
killing in the name of freedom
like killing in the name of god
is both wrong and unforgivable
God is watching the mistakes made in free will
he cries for US
righteousness is a untamed beast
respect the only whip
believing in something doesn't make it right or true
take hold
remember what it is you stand for
or forever feel the permanence of sitting

My favorite line:
"but the truth behind those stripes

I'll try to post a rebuttal soon. I want to try to update the layout of the jonie-jon...we need to start blogging on this more.

I agree, blog more, I like what you've done with the place, It looks more poetic less depressing!
