Blood on my hands tears in my eyes.
I can't believe the words I hear ‘em say today
A simple act that we're "doing okay"
And I'm so damn tired of fighting these lies
Time to wake up time to open your eyes
Things we choose to ignore
How we ration the poor
Let them all have a taste of our chemical waste
So keep spreading the lies
Since we're all gonna die
The face of this earth has been shot right between the eyes
Blood on my hands – Tears in my eyes
Can we erase what we've done tonight?
The sound of silence echoes in my head today
I can no longer hear the voices of change
And I can't believe all the stories we're told
The blood on our hands leaves a mark in the snow
Things we choose to ignore
How we ration the poor
Let them all have a taste of our chemical waste
So keep spreading the lies
Since we're all gonna die
Now all we have left is the guilt and the
tears in our eyes
Blood on my hands – Tears in my eyes
Can we erase what we've done tonight?
I got blood on my hands - you got tears in your eyes
We got blood on our hands - we got tears in our eyes
What the fuck have we done?
What the fuck have we done?!
Woo-ooh-ooh
Blood on my hands – Tears in my eyes
Can we erase what we've done tonight?
Blood on my hands – Tears in my eyes
Can we erase what we've done tonight?
What we've done tonight!
WHAT WE'VE DONE TONIGHT!
Artist: Five for FightingJohn Ondrasik Blood On My Hands Song Details
Album: Blood on My Hands
Released: 13 September 2021
Genre: Folk
Five For Fighting singer-songwriter John Ondrasik has released a new song that’s very critical of the US withdrawal strategy from Afghanistan.
The Grammy-nominated artist wrote his new track “Blood On My Hands” shortly after learning of the suicide bombing in Kabul that left 13 US military dead and dozens of Afghans. The suicide bombing was followed by a shootout between Islamic State gunmen at the gate, where the night before there had been 5,000 Afghans and potentially Americans seeking access to the airport to flee then that the Taliban were taking the country as President Joe Biden stuck to the decision to withdraw his troops after two decades.
In his song, Ondrasik uses lyrics that seem directly critical of the withdrawal plan. Watch Song On Youtube
Blood On My Hands Lyrics
Got blood on my hands
Got blood on my hands
And I don’t understand
What’s happening
There’s blood on these hands
And still American’s
Left to the Taliban
Now how’s that
happening?
Winkin’ Blinken
Can’t you look me in the eyes
Willy Milley
Tell me when did you decide
This we’ll defend
Your sacred motto
Now means… never mind
Hands
Got blood on my hands
Got blood on my hands
Flag of the Taliban
Over Afghanistan
General Austin is there no honor in shame?
Can you spell Bagram without the letters in blame?
Did Uncle Joe stick a drip in your veins?
Hands
I can’t hear her scream if she’s not, she’s not
She’s not
on TV
I can’t hear him scream if he’s not, he’s not
He’s not on TV
To every Afghan ally that we left behind
Every child who won’t know freedom
Faces covered and blind
As for this American promise
Now… shit in the Fire
Hands
Got blood on our hands
Hey Joe, just one American
Asking what’s happening
