Gas Blowin' Out Of Our Eyes

There was gas blowin' out of our eyes
Just to make matters worse for the night.
We destroyed everything in our sight.
We did fine.
We visit families and friends in our sleep
The underbelly of a nation starts to weep
Shipped around, tossed about, all in too deep.
We did our time.
Desperation sweeps the countryside
Contradictin' the standards we abided
We shut our mouths, think our thoughts, and keep in stride.
It's hard to hide.
It's hard to hide.
The cancer dropped upon the camp early this morn
Blisters freed, and the bandages were torn
Sixty-one, sixty-two laid to rest.
We did our best.
