A Bm x2
[Verse]
A Bm A Bm Bm
A man stands up before his God and country
A Bm A Bm Bm
Raises his right hand and takes an oath
A Bm A Bm Bm
Swears he has acted in the line of duty
A Bm A Bm Bm
And he more than anyone wants to tell the truth
[Chorus]
G Bm A
But there is a need to keep somethings a secret
G Bm A
Some weapons shipments, some private wars
G Bm A
In the future democracy will be defended
A Bm Bm
Behind closed doors
[Verse]
A Bm A Bm Bm
Now the men of Congress who convene to determine
A Bm A Bm Bm
If covert war is a business or a crime
A Bm A Bm Bm
Are the same men who routinely give their permission
A Bm A Bm Bm
For the shedding of blood in security's name
[Chorus]
G Bm A
And there is a need to keep some things a secret
G Bm A
The names of some countries, the terms of some deals
G Bm A
And above all the sound of the screams of the innocent
A Bm Bm A Bm Bm
Beneath our wheels
[Bridge]

Does the word justice mean anything to you?

Are the features of a lie beginning to come through?

[Verse]
A Bm A Bm Bm
In the streets of America the children are buried
A Bm A Bm Bm
Caught in an avalanche of weapons and drugs
A Bm A Bm Bm
They live and they die in the bowels of a business
A Bm A Bm Bm
That disguised as a war between The Crips and The Bloods
[Chorus]
G Bm A
And there is a need to keep some things a secret
G Bm A
The C.I.A. deals protecting the source
G Bm A
And the government policies directly connecting
A Bm Bm A Bm Bm
The drugs and our wars
[Bridge]

Does the word justice mean anything to you?

As the battlefield comes home and democracy falls through
