I Have Seen the Enemy

I Have Seen the Enemy
[2008]

Desert Sunrise

Desert Sunrise
2008

The song was originally written by their lead vocalist, Lynx, for a compilation put out to benefit Iraq Veterans Against the War and was based on first-person accounts from anti-war veterans of what it was like to be in Iraq as a member of the occupying army, all the while knowing that the war and the occupation are wrong. A solo version of it was published on the compilation 'A Line In the Sand', released by Wild Stallion Records in August 2007. The bands version is on their second album, Liberty.
