I didn't even get a kiss
Folder:
The Ramblings Of A Madman well I still feel
to die for something is better
than living for nothing
but it seems like I'm running out
of reasons worth dying for
I have invested blood ,sweat and tears
learning to kill
it's a sad thing to say
but I'm pretty good at it
buying into the honor for country
kill a commie for mommy
were here to save you
even if you don't want to be saved
don't mind the collateral damage
eating old c-rations and MRE's
while the fat cat's back at the capital
are eating steak an shrimp
while drinking champagne
their reading the wall street journal
I got a dear john letter
observe , adapt, overcome an move on
oooragh Sargent oooragh
sleeping out in the cold
with no reasons for going home
what the hell send Me in coach
I'm ready to play
the loser gets to ride the white horse
as death takes another soul to their judgment
I've got no problem fighting for what I
believe in
but it's hard to believe in whats right an wrong
when your fearless leaders are a couple of thousand
miles from the battle field
getting richer on diamonds an oil or maybe processed
coco leaves
You did us proud boy but your time is up
here's a medal
now go home an forget everything you were taught
well what the hell I don't feel like the hero they promised
I would be
why dose it feel like I just got fucked
an I didn't even get a kiss

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

"Well, it's love, but not as we know it."
Vet Vent
I crossed deserts, seas, mountains
dodged bullets, took life, ate
whatever was available.
.
I send them over foreign soil
live the war vicariously via tv
and sip Blue Lable glad
I did not nave to go.
.
I came home, nothing left
but hard memories, nothing
like I left it. The necessity
has taught me that even
without the monitary reward
from a great and grateful
nation, I'd do it all again.
