[00:17.80]Greetings good stranger why should you die
[00:21.98]For a country sitting on a lie
[00:25.96]Pull my conscience from my hindsight
[00:29.87]I have learned from the soldier's plight
[00:33.94]No ideal is worth a bullet fight
[00:37.72]I heard this from my neighbor who sleeps with a knife
[00:41.10]He once had a daughter she was about your size
[00:45.18]I heard she went went war and when shot saw the light
[00:49.29]
[01:04.89]Greetings good stranger i've seen the light as well
[01:09.02]It shines through my country and so i feel compelled
[01:12.84]To hold my conscience to what the bible tells
[01:16.56]And all i know is i don't want to go to hell
[01:20.69]And peace and love and freedom are worth a bullet welt
[01:24.45]I learned this from my father who lived and who fell
[01:28.47]He once took the oath before his flag and knelt
[01:32.48]He died in the war and no remorse was felt
[01:36.40]
[02:07.65]Greetings good stranger you seem very kind
[02:11.42]But i have learned from the soldier's plight
[02:15.55]Righteous thoughts are needed for living righteous lives
[02:19.45]This i can be sure of i hope you'll see the light
