No one get's left behind, another fallen soul
No one gets left behind, another broken home
No one gets left behind, we stand and fight together
No one gets left behind, or we all die alone

Politicians banking in their greed
No idea on how to be all they can be

Have you no honor have you no soul
What is it they're dying for do you really even know
Have you no backbone have you no spine
Whatever happened to no one gets left behind,

No one gets left behind, I know you made it up
No one gets left behind, it's more for money
No one gets left behind, drink from the golden cup
No one gets left behind, your turn is coming

Play your war games with other people's lives
It should be you on the front line

Have you no honor, have you no soul
What is it they're dying for, do you really even know
Have you no backbone, have you no spine
Whatever happened to no one gets left behind

Have you no honor, have you no soul
What is it they're dying for, do you really even know
Have you no backbone, have you no spine
Whatever happened to no one gets left behind

No one gets left behind
No one gets left behind
No one gets left behind
No one gets left behind

No one gets left behind

    Ok first of all it is often correct to say a politician only orders men to die and pays no consequence. However to say a General only orders it is pathetic. Everyone starts the same rank. 1 stripe or 1 bar. That General understands more than anybody the pain of a losing a fellow man or woman. To the above jackass commenting about the Army, Air Force, and Navy. Caucasian clearly you are not a military man considering your view of a pussy also contains Delta Force, Green Berets, Combat Controllers, Pararescue, Explosive Ordnance Team, and SEALS all members of the sister branches to the USMC. I would say supporting the troops is independent in supporting a war. However the only people with any right to complain of war are the men and woman who die in them. Also I have a feeling this is not anti-war considering the album is called "War is the Answer"... Liberals are fantastic for complaining about war and violence and conservatives are great at desecrating mankind... Before anyone claims war is pointless please look up how Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, Soviet Russia, Imperial England, Napoleon, etc were all stopped... Violence solves your problem the difficulty with violence is not allowing it to cause more.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
