About

While the title shares a name with a city in Michigan, the song is hardly about that. Instead, it tells the story of someone visiting a war site who’s overwhelmed by the violence and atrocities they witness, which causes them to ask broader questions about humanity’s capacity for violence.

Battle Creek Lyrics

I went down to the battle creek
The things I saw there were amazing
Bones never looked so real before
I believed they were there
But now I'm sure

I'm sure

I was down by the battle creek
The sheer numbers were startling
Death never felt so real before
Always knew it was there
But now I'm sure

I'm sure

Oh my daughters, oh my sons and lovers
Did I raise you to harm one another?
Or did you learn it from someone else?
Did you pull it from someone else's hands?
And when you slip into blinking red
Do you blame it on God or on your fellow man?

Oh my daughters, oh my sons and lovers
Did I raise you to harm one another?
Or did you learn it from someone else?
Did you pull it from someone else's hands?
And when you slip into blinking red
Do you blame it on God or on your fellow man?

I returned from the battle creek
But my heart did not make it back with me
