This song seems to be about the Iraq/Afghanistan war, where leaders promised if nothing was done you would have widespread terrorism in the US and had them fighting in a war they didn’t understand, through the sand, gun in hand, for their country.
I'm just a normal man
I wouldn't hurt nothing at all
But here we are
Our leaders have a plan
I'd only kill if it's for them
Now here we are
I drove in a car
Flew in a plane
To come to your house
And kick your door in
Now it's down to this
It's just you and me
I'll blow your fucking head off
For my country
I go to church and tithe
Go to work in a suit and tie
But this is war
I'm really not sure why
But the TV says that you were wrong
Now here we are
I drove in a car
Flew in a plane
To come to your house
And kick your door in
Now it's down to this
It's just you and me
I'll blow your fucking head off
For my country
My feet hurt from the sand
But still I march on gun in hand
'Cause this is war
This isn't what I planned
I wanted to be so much more
But this is war
I drove in a car
Flew in a plane
To come to your house
And kick your door in
Now it's down to this
It's just you and me
I'll blow your fucking head off
For my country
