about

Ever since there have been powerful, rich old men, they have been sending young men--mostly poor and politically powerless--off to die in their wars. "This" is written from the perspective of a grieving father who has lived through the torture of losing a son to another meaningless war. It's a heartbreaking one-way conversation with a politician he knows is not listening.

lyrics

I don't want to feel like this
I don't want to hurt like this
I don't want to think of this
I don't want to go through this

I don't want to part with this
I don't want to lose all this
I don't want to give you this
I don't want to bleed like this

They don't have to go like this
They don't have to own all this
They don't have to fall like this
They don't have to die

You don't have to cry like this
You don't have to feel all this
You don't have to deal with this
'Cause you ain't got no skin in this
