(spoken - you've got to love family
mine, they tell me, they remind me
how much I'm like my father
my voice, my laughter
everything that I do
reminds them of him
oh, how much I wish I had known him
you see, he was killed in the war
just two days before I was born)

when i was born
i learned about heaven
it’s that place where good people go

then i took my first step
it was a big lesson
something everybody should know

war kills / no thrills
when everybody
has someone to lose

war kills / blood spills
when everybody 
has someone to lose

someone to lose. . .

(spoken - the president opens up the season
with the first pitch, silent America
we sincerely regret to inform you
your son died in a bomb shattered ditch
and, now victory, she's marching home
on a road of broken glass)

when i was born
i learned about heaven
it’s that place where good people go

then i took my first step
it was a big lesson
something everybody should know

war kills / no thrills
when everybody
has someone to lose

war kills / blood spills
when everybody 
has someone to lose

someone to lose. . .

(spoken - the cry of war has a lonely sound
when angels fall on the battleground)
