| Defeater – The Red White and Blues Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I think you're missing the point in that the lyrics surrounding the colors of the flag are meant to be ironic. The song is titled "The Red, White, and Blues" for a reason. "Bleeding" Red, White, and Blue alludes to the fact that his country is willing to take everything from him, and, despite his sacrifice and patriotism, refuses to repay the favor. This bit of truth is reinforced later in the EP, when we find out the serviceman in question is black and granted no solace whatsoever by America in his return from World War II. |
