Radicalized Songtext
von Desaparecidos

My whole family tree has got nothing to eat
The machine guns guard the checkpoint from starving refugees
So when I stop to pray for the fifth time today
Still see my sister Alma with a hole in her skull
As the tanks pulled away

Radicalized! Radicalized!
Radical lies! Radical lies!
I′m so surprised my mind's a tug-o-war
Radicalized! Radicalized!
Radical lies! Radical lies!
It′s no surprise my mind's not mine no more


Can't afford no dream with a G.E.D.
The recruiter shook my brother′s hand, now he′s all he can be
So when his team's Humvee hit the I.E.D.
Me and my mother, we cried
In our new double wide
Around the Christmas tree

Radicalized! Radicalized!
Radical lies! Radical lies!
I′m so surprised my mind's a tug-o-war
Radicalized! Radicalized!
Radical lies! Radical lies!
It′s no surprise my mind's not mine no more

Radicalized! Radicalized!
Radical lies! Radical lies!
I′m so surprised my mind's a tug-o-war
Radicalized! Radicalized!
Radical lies! Radical lies!
It's no surprise my mind′s not mine no more
