Frontlines Lyrics
Been away a long time
Come home to ruination
Smoke swirls in blue sky
The mourning of a nation
Stick around if I dare
Or move out to the country
But living in the sticks won’t
Save you from what must be
Keep me from the frontlines
I’m no match for them
Cowardice in wartime
Hear my prayers
Amen
Go ahead and see
What happens to me
Keep me from the frontlines
I’m no match for them
Cowardice in wartime
Hear my prayers
Amen
Come home to ruination
Smoke swirls in blue sky
The mourning of a nation
Or move out to the country
But living in the sticks won’t
Save you from what must be
I’m no match for them
Cowardice in wartime
Hear my prayers
Amen
What happens to me
I’m no match for them
Cowardice in wartime
Hear my prayers
Amen

Man, this is an incredible song. Anyone want to take a stab at the lyrics? I want to say he's saying something about the war in Iraq, but that might be too easy.
