Here we are   Once again   In all our vain-   glorious ambition   No doubt or   Second guess   And damned   The consequence   When the end   Is Justified   By ever changing   Reasons and lies   When hubris rules   Honesty wanes   It’s a dangerous game      It’s easy   To rationalize   When it’s someone   Else’s life   Power makes even   The coward brave   It’s a dangerous game      Black gold   At what cost   How many innocent   Lives have been lost   How many barrels of   Blood does it take   To fill an SUV   These days   All this   And what for   This land’s now a   Festering open sore   How long   Are we stayin’   It’s a dangerous game   We’re playin’      It’s a dangerous game   It’s a dangerous game   It’s a dangerous game   We’re playin’
