[Verse 1]
Back in the days of shock and awe
We came to liberate them all
History was the cruel judge of overconfidence
Back in the days of shock and awe
[Verse 2]
Back in the days of "Mission accomplished"
Our chief was landing on the deck
The sun was setting on a golden photo op
Back in the days of "Mission accomplished"
[Verse 3]
Thousands of bodies in the ground
Brought home in boxes to a trumpet's sound
No one sees them coming home that way
Thousands buried in the ground
[Guitar and Trumpet Solos]
[Verse 4]
Thousands of children scarred for life
Millions of tears for a soldier's wife
Both sides are losing now, Heaven takes them in
Thousands of children scarred for life
Back in the days of shock and awe
We came to liberate them all
History was the cruel judge of overconfidence
Back in the days of shock and awe
[Verse 2]
Back in the days of "Mission accomplished"
Our chief was landing on the deck
The sun was setting on a golden photo op
Back in the days of "Mission accomplished"
[Verse 3]
Thousands of bodies in the ground
Brought home in boxes to a trumpet's sound
No one sees them coming home that way
Thousands buried in the ground
[Guitar and Trumpet Solos]
[Verse 4]
Thousands of children scarred for life
Millions of tears for a soldier's wife
Both sides are losing now, Heaven takes them in
Thousands of children scarred for life
