#nathanwagner #endlesswar
Here’s a darker song I wrote about propaganda and war. I’ve been so nervous about this one. It’s honestly been one of the most painful songs I've worked on. Thinking through history about so many atrocities. I hate war. I hate loss. I know it's often necessary and to those who've served, I could not be more grateful for your courage. Your protection. I didn't want to share this one. It seemed like it might be offensive/divisive/just be too painful for so many people. But something in me felt like I should. So here it is. Love you all so much. Taking the time to listen to my work means more than you could ever know.

Lyrics:
They told stories of legends and old
Ever since I was young
Of protectors our saviors our heroes
That’s who I’ll become said
Give your heart
And your strength
To the cause
Never break
You can be like them to
Take your gun
And your flag
Hold it strong
Take their land
We can show them the truth
What is it for?
Endless war
Just toil away
To spread our plague
Keep devastating
All in vein
What’s it for?
So they sent us away on their mission
Thinking heroes we’ll be
Through the smoke saw a man looked suspicious
So I put him to sleep
How it woke me up
From this daze
Killed a man
He had a name
For what sake I don’t know
Constantly
It’s in my head
The memory
It never left
Can’t escape it won’t go
What is it for?
Endless war
Just toil away
To spread our plague
Keep devastating
All in vein
What’s it for?
I don’t want to fight no more
Watch my brothers die no more
Everything feel’s so out of place
I don’t wanna cry no more
See another life get torn
Tell me what’s the point to this pain
I don’t wanna lie no more
Just don’t know what’s right no more
Gotta be a different way
I just can’t stay quiet no more
Been twisting with my mind since birth
It’s looking like we’re all being played
What is it for?
Endless war
Just toil away
To spread our plague
Keep devastating
All in vein
What’s it for?
