Redemption Breaking - I Could Have Stopped the War Lyrics

Lets go back to my house
Build a fort of sofa cushions, dim the lights, pull the curtains
Fire up the TV so what I see don't bother me
Get lost in entertainment till I can't see the bullets outside
Pretend its all a lie
If only I had stood up
If only I did speak
If only I were tuned in and gave a damn to see
It was up to me
And I could have stopped the war
Someone make it stop
Saw it coming then did nothing now there's blood all over my hands
I should have acted out but my head is like my courage
Like my brother like my son
Buried in the sand
If only I had stood up
If only I did speak
If only I was marching
Not self absorbed and weak
It was up to me
And I could have stopped the war
Left my choice to someone else
So ready or not, the war has come
Like it's come for everyone
If only I had stood up
Instead of run and hide
If only I were braver and trusted my own eyes...
Now its up to me
And now I fight the war
