Killing Is Killing
Killling is killing,
not a training excercise,
men and women came to serve,
not get robbed of their lives.
They came to serve America,
put their lives right on the line,
they came out of love for country,
and mom, and God, and home.
Killling is killing,
not a training excercise,
men and women came to serve,
not get robbed of their lives.
Killing is killing
whether done abroad or home,
power is for saving lives,
not drowing our first born.
He was just a young boy,
he was doing a civic job,
his name was Jason,
now he stands before God
Killling is killing,
not a training excercise,
men and women came to serve,
not get robbed of their lives.
Right or wrong, is not the point,
killing's at the enemy front,
but some can't wait to fight,
their anger is plainly blunt.
Killling is killing,
not a training excercise,
men and women came to serve,
not get robbed of their lives.
So, we'll slap them on the hands,
and quietly sit them aside,
their comradery they can not hide,
they don't care that Jason died,
he was weak and lacking pride,
otherwise he would have survived...
In memory of Jason Robert Tharp
of Sutton West Virginia
died Feb 8, 2005
on the 25th day of his enlistment
at the hands of his employer - U.S. Marine Corp.
Columbia South Carolina
Platoon 3024,
India Company,
3rd Recruit Training Battalion.
Struck by his superior, during a pool training exercise because he wouldn't get in the pool,
according to news camera footage, drowned the next day in the pool, while his superiors watched.
That is what they'll say
in no uncertain way,
he was here before
and gone today,
and that is a fact,
they find ok.
Killling is killing,
not a training excercise,
men and women came to serve,
not get robbed of their lives.
They hide their names,
they won't lose any sleep,
the four will be forgotten,
while a mother weaps.
Killling is killing,
not a training excercise,
men and women came to serve,
not get robbed of their lives.
