Acoustic mix of an original song by Ethan Taylor Sellers.
Revenge is not foreign policy.

lyrics

THE PILE
words/music by Ethan Taylor Sellers

A clear and sunny morning went dark forever more
When first we heard the impacts and then we felt the horror
They ran into the towers, they didn't hesitate
Without a thought for themselves, they bravely met their fate.

They acted with courage, they gave their lives
They left behind mothers, daughters, wives
They were our brothers, our friends, our sons
It could’ve been you, me, or anyone

The sky came crashing down, the gates of Hell yawned wide
The mighty towers destroyed, six thousand souls inside
Shrouded in smoke, and breathing ash
Pulverized concrete, and vaporized glass

So we called on our armies to lay down their lives
They left behind mothers, daughters, wives
To hunt for mirages in the desert sun
And liberate strangers at the point of a gun.

Paid plenty in human cost
Killed twenty for each we lost
But fickle allegiance swayed
We broke it and walked away

Ten years later, I held my newborn son
And I swear I'll never let him fight in a war that won't be won
His blood won't be oil in the gears of a machine
That turns our noblest impulses into something so obscene.

We must question power and see through lies
Or watch as we’ve become what we despise
Let's teach this lesson to our daughters and sons
An eye for an eye blinds everyone.
