Jim Bows & the Flycatchers - Someone Try to Explain

He was old enough to
Fight for his country
But too young to die
They said he wasn't lost in vain
But that was a lie
They talk about the price of freedom
You wonder was the price too high
And all you want to do
Is say goodbye
Will someone try to explain
Why we live in this cruel
Cruel world
Will someone try to explain
Using words that make sense
Of it all
Ask your God
Why he don't listen anymore
Will someone try to explain
Someone try to explain
She was standing on a crowded street
In the afternoon
When a single shot took her life
Forty years too soon
They talk about the constitution
You wonder is it time for change
But all they ever do
Is shift the blame
Will someone try to explain
Why we live in this cruel
Cruel world
Will someone try to explain
Using words that make sense
Of it all
Ask your God
Why he don't listen anymore
Will someone try to explain
Someone try to explain
Ask your God
Why he don't listen anymore
He was old enough to
Fight for his country
But too young to die
