that's my boy

that's my boy, american son, hope i'm not around when he gets the idea to buy a gun, there's our boy, american son, hope we're not to blame when he gets the idea to kill someone, have you ever really loved someone?, the flags been broken, by an enemy, raised on mtv, raised on you and me, have you ever really loved someone?, have you ever really loved someone?, gone, yeah it's gone, the land i have known of in my youth, yeah it's gone and it's never coming back, where's our savior, not looking for a sign, just want something to clean, the blood from my numb weary mind, have you ever really loved someone?, have you ever really loved someone?
