An Unknown Friend

I’ve been riding all night
And my head can’t sleep
How did this get so far
Now I’m in too deep

There’s a man with a gun
And flags flying round
Mind control is all we need
To shoot them in the ground

They taught me to hate
And told me to kill
Now please take me home

He was only a sun
He was only a friend
We all do as we’re told
I gave his life an end

But we might have been friends
If we met on the street
But now he’s down and won’t get up
This family man in defeat

They taught me to hate
And told me to kill
Now please take me home

When I close my eyes
All I see is his face
He looks a lot like you and me
Please get me out of this place

They taught me to hate
And told me to kill
Now please take me home
