Don't cry You've got to hide Your emotions inside You can't appear too weak Cold steel There's nothing to feel You must never reveal The damage these emotions wreak You'd better not complain About what you've sustained We do a great disservice to our young And feign surprise at what one day they become We reap a consequence we don't intend We build a factory for broken men War It's what you're meant for Destroy the ones we abhor For all that we hold true Back home You're on your own Left to suffer alone With the demons you brought back with you You'd better not complain About what you've sustained We do a great disservice to our young And feign surprise at what one day they become We reap a consequence we don't intend We build a factory for broken men Confined You'll do your time Your existence a crime Caged like a common beast Your worth Lower than dirt Your future inert If you ever get released You'd better not complain About what you've sustained We do a great disservice to our young And feign surprise at what one day they become We reap a consequence we don't intend We build a factory for broken men
