With the war still raging 6 years after the US declared victory in Iraq, this song expresses the futility of that conflict.
Your little secret so plain to see
The liberator is really the enemy
There’s no bouquets of roses thrown at your feet
Why they’re fighting back is no mystery
The numbers climbing all the headlines say
How many more are gonna come home in body bags
People are asking is it gonna end
Or is it Vietnam all over again because
Spinning, spinning, out of control
Where it ends we’ve all seen it before
Deeper and deeper, how far will it go
Until you face it, you’ll never make it
You say to honour the fallen you must get it right
To stay the course and continue this crazy fight
You say you have divine authority
But if God were alive now, he’d be marching for peace
‘Cause it’s out of control
Where it ends we’ve all seen it before
Deeper and deeper, how far will it go
Until you face it, you’ll never make it
No way to fake it
You’ll never win this war
The liberator is really the enemy
There’s no bouquets of roses thrown at your feet
Why they’re fighting back is no mystery
The numbers climbing all the headlines say
How many more are gonna come home in body bags
People are asking is it gonna end
Or is it Vietnam all over again because
Spinning, spinning, out of control
Where it ends we’ve all seen it before
Deeper and deeper, how far will it go
Until you face it, you’ll never make it
You say to honour the fallen you must get it right
To stay the course and continue this crazy fight
You say you have divine authority
But if God were alive now, he’d be marching for peace
‘Cause it’s out of control
Where it ends we’ve all seen it before
Deeper and deeper, how far will it go
Until you face it, you’ll never make it
No way to fake it
You’ll never win this war
