State Of The Nation Lyrics - Singles - Shamra

I see them marching off to war 

They're looking so heroic 

I'm told they won't be gone for long 

But, it's a lie they know it 

Ten thousand gone they won't return 

Never to be seen again 

Strategic games are all we learn 

In the end 

But, they say 

Don't you worry about the situation 

(a message from the telephone) 

They're out there fighting for the state of the nation 

(they're waiting for the chance to come home) 

They always have to fight the alienation 

(and realize they're fighting alone) 

When night's mere memory fades to dust 

We'll get back on our feet again 

This war has nothing to do with us 

But, somehow we're so involved in it 

Well, don't you worry about the situation 

(a message from the telephone) 

They're out there fighting for the state of the nation 

(they're waiting for the chance to come home) 

Don't you worry about the situation 

(a message from the telephone) 

They always have to fight the alienation 

(and realize they're fighting alone) 

There's no place like home 

There's no place like home 

There's no place like home 

I don't want to be anywhere else
