Hero of War
Have you ever been to war? This song has a lot of meaning for a lot of people. It is not to be taken lightly. It can be looked at as anti-military, or anti-war. I see it differently. I see it as wiping away that thin layer of sugar-coat from in between the war and people at home.
War is not great. It is not a place where champions can be born, live up, and die. It is not a place for heroes to sacrifice themselves. It is a place where people go to kill and be killed until somebody says they can’t take it anymore. It’s about killing the innocent because of what a few people decided to do.
He is not saying war should be banned. He is singing that war does not breed heroes. War is a necessary mind-twist of criminality. For the people coming home from a war being over, we need to celebrate their long-awaited return.
Be proud of your soldier, and be proud if you are serving your country. Men and women die every day, so see it for what it is and not a game Call of Duty.
Ecclesiastes 3:8-A time to love, and a time to hate; A time for war, and a time for peace.
