"Endless war"

Someone had said my village was an Al-Qaida base
Without hesitation the Americans bombed the place
So willing they are to believe such baseless, bought lies
Now half my village lies dead while the other half cries

For revenge and money it seems our rival tribe had lied
and for this shameful reason so many of my people died
The Americans said they were sorry, that it was all a mistake
But how much more "collateral damage" can we expect to take

How can I forgive the Americans the deaths of my loved ones
I wept as I saw my neighbors bury thier daughters and sons
It seems as if this "war on terror" is never going to end
And sadly every day we are killed by a so called "friend"

We all wonder what new horrors for us, tomorrow has in store
Since we are caught in the middle of a seemingly endless war
