[2007]
Lyrics & Music by Steven P. Richards

"I wrote this song because, in my opinion, I feel that our exposure to the War in Iraq has been very "sanitized", and has in turn kept us distanced from the daily horrors that our soldiers face. I think that this is calculated to keep us from asking questions about why we are there and why aren't we working toward an exit strategy. As an army veteran (of the Panamanian Invasion and Desert Storm), I know that the soldiers in Iraqi and their families are enduring tremendous hardships. And ultimately, I would love it if this song could, if even slightly, help speed the process of getting them safely home for good".
