Oh, that beautiful red white and blue
The crisp flag
Glory and pride
Soars above our nation
The pride of our country
Smothering us in its luxurious folds
Stars to blind us
Stripes to bind us
The purest white for innocence lost
The blue deep as our ocean of oppression
Red as the blood we spill
Makes us into machines
Kills what little life remains
Find peace through uniformity
Refuge in commercialization
Cry now while your heart still bleeds
Cry for the festering wound we call home
Sorrow for the confusion that consumes thought
America,
The beautiful
