Broken Bones

Sometimes I stare at the night sky
 See them stars a billion light years away
 
 And it makes me feel small like a bug on a wall
 Who gives a shit anyway?
 Who gives a shit anyway?

 When World War II was over
 Though the slate was never wiped clean
 
 We could have picked over them broken bones
 We could have been free
 But we chose to adhere to abundance
 We chose the American Dream

 It don't much matter wherever you're born
 Little babies mean us no harm
 
 They have to be taught to despise us
 To bulldoze our homes to the ground
 
 To believe that their fight is for liberty
 To believe that their God will keep them safe and sound
