Lead Sails -- Atreyu

Marching Along, Like A Good Soldier Does. I’m Setting Sail, With Anchors Holding Me Down. Pack Up My Bags, Stow Them Away.
Bidding Farewell To All That Is Safe.  Will I Come Up For Air, Come Up For Air.

After A while The Current is Calling Me,  lulling Me Waving Goodbye.
I’m Out Here Alone, Oh God Can You Save Me Now?
Sinking My Heart Turns To Stone.

Withering Away, Her Shrinking Violet Dies.  So Full Of Life, These Lights Have Dried Me Out.  Into The Sea, I Needed A Drink.  I Never Thought This Would Consume Me Whole.  Will I come up for air, come up for air.

Save Me, Take Me Home,  Over And Over Again.  Save Me, Take Me Home.
Wishing That This All Would End.  Save Me, Take Me Home,  Over And Over Again.  Save Me, Take Me Home,  Wishing That This All Would End.

Save Me Take Me Home,  When I Come Up For Air, Save Me Take Me Home,
When I Come Up For Air, Save Me Take Me Home                             (sing365) .

   George Carlin  --  we  like  war

    

This song is about war, and its effects. The lyrics, "Marching alone, like a good soldier does" indicates the loneliness associated with being a soldier in the war                                                                        

The very impossible concept of a boat with sails made of lead and an anchor which is made of paper indicates role reversal and a general impossibility - the knowledge that victory is elusive, and in no way can anybody win. "Sinking my heart turns to stone" - This is representative of what war can do to you, physically and psychologically.          (songfacts)
