EDIT:::::::
FOR SOME REASON IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE LAST THREAD WITH THIS SONG WAS DELETED? I HAD NO PM FROM A MOD TELLING ME IT WASNT COOL SO I FIGURE I WILL JUST BUMP THIS ONE AND PERHAPS THATS WHY THEY REMOVED IT?????

if this is a problem with the mods for some reason feel free to take it down, hopefully you dont :)

    a friend of mine mentioned he read that Eddie has been hanging out with an injured Veteran (severely i believe) that has become an anti-war activist. i think that helps give this song even more of a powerful background.

    cant wait to hear a really clean version of this, hopefully live :D

    Cool song... I listened to it a few times today and think that I got most of the lyrics right...



    I’ll speak for a man who gave for this land,
    took a bullet in the back for his pay
    Spilled his blood in the dirt and the dust,
    he’s come back to say

    What he has seen is hard to believe,
    and it does no good to just to pray
    He asked of us to stand and we watched,(?)
    in this war today

    With his mind he said “no more”
    With his heart he said “no more”
    With his life he said “no more war”

    With his eyes he said “no more”
    With his body he said “no more”
    With his voice he said “no more war”

    “No more war”


    And nothing’s too good for a veteran
    Yeah this is what they say
    So nothing is what they will get
    in this new American way.

    Lies that were told to get us to go,
    are criminal let us be straight
    Let’s get to the point where our voices get heard,
    behind the Whitehouse gate

    With his mind he said “no more”
    With his heart he said “no more”
    With his life he said “no more war”

    With his eyes he said “no more”
    With his voice he said “no more”
    With his body he said “no more war”

    “No more war”
    “No more war”


    No more innocents dying
    No more terror rising
    No more eulogizing
    No more evangelizing
    No more presidents lying

    No more war


    With our mind we’re saying “no more”
    With our voice we’re saying “no more”
    With our lives we’re saying “no more war”

    No more war
    No more war
    My whole life
    was like a picture
    of a sunny day
    “We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.”
    ― Abraham Lincoln
