Throw it all away
Lets lose ourselves
Cause there's no one left for us to blame
Its a shame we're all dying
And do you think you deserve your freedom

How could you send us all far away from home
When you know damn well that this is all
I would still lay down my life for you

And do you think you deserve your freedom
No I don't think you do

There's no justice in the world

There's no justice in the world

And there never was

    I know that Muse usually write this "style" of song. but it kinda stuck me. It's a great "high" song. the song just kinda sounds like being high..

    so the point: there have been a few soldiers who have recently spoke out about the reason that we're over there: Poppy plants. opium.

    "there's no one left for us to blame." - we've blamed it on all of these "terrorists" and now we've got not no one left to justify our presence overseas.

    the singer says. "and you think you deserve your freedom? how could you send us so far from home? when you know damn well we're that this is wrong. I would still lay down my life for you."

    from a soldier's perspective: he asks the all of the people in the US government included: "do you think you DESERVE your freedom?" do you even KNOW what we've been doing over here? this is wrong, we shouldn't be here. you don't deserve freedom because what we're fighting for is not "freedom" or "democracy." we're killing innocent people, and we know it.

    "I would still lay down my life for you." saying: even though this is BS, I still took oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic;" he wants to defend, help and serve his country. so he will still lay down his life for for our country, although he believes what he is doing is wrong."

    I respect and support our military every day. always have always will.
