(Verse)
Private Manning standing in a court room,
pleading guilty, she shouldn't have to
Truth be told, should be floating down routes
The truth was told, and what good did that do?

(Verse 2)
His conscience barked as he watched our Apache
Cowboy-kill civilian Iraqis
The laughter rolled like tanks over bodies
She thought, what if everyone could see what I see?
