Blue Rodeo - How Long lyrics

Forever lost in comparisons Between you and the better man Yeah you're always so quick To take a bow I've got to laugh at your circus sympathy And your postcard sincerity Don't you ever get tired Of being yourself It's getting so hard to find you As you fade into your world of reprisal As you slip into the comfort Of your denial Your patriotic smile Your go down in style And you say that you're not to blame Yeah you're proud of what you did And you'd do it again All in the name of God and country But that's too bad about the little snag Cause getting caught is such a drag Even in the name of God and country Still you're all the same to me You're just trying to make points on national TV Yeah you try to make points for God God and country You call this justice I call this self-service Solo And I hope that I never find What you call good conscience Or peace of mind As another man dies for God and country 'Cause I'm sure while you're sitting there talking Well the bombs are falling All in the name All in the name All in the name of God and country
