Out of Step
by DCDave

I'm deserting from the deserters
Of the legacy
Of courage and devotion to
The cause of liberty.

I'm running from a citizenry
That gave it all away,
Holding that the price of freedom
Was too high to pay.

As they watch me proudly flee,
Perhaps they will surmise
They've gained no lasting comfort from
Surrendering to lies.
