American Standard Lyrics
Oh have you heard the news today,
They've gone and ripped it all away,
They've torn our precious world to shreds,
We're only hours in already twenty dead.
Refrain:
They just don't seem to see
It's people just like you and me
Are crying
Are dying
One side or the other
You and me
Us and them
We're all the same.
The bodies strewn upon the ground
And all the men are tightly wound
They would just shoot at any noise
If just to use their precious toys
They've gone and ripped it all away,
They've torn our precious world to shreds,
We're only hours in already twenty dead.
It's people just like you and me
Are crying
Are dying
One side or the other
You and me
Us and them
We're all the same.
And all the men are tightly wound
They would just shoot at any noise
If just to use their precious toys

This one's fairly simple I wrote it to be about war specifically the one in iraq I like the way the last line of verse one just hits you right in the face
