That's my boy American son Hope I'm not around when he gets the idea to buy a gun There's our boy American son Hope we're not to blame when he gets the idea to kill someone Have you ever really loved someone? The flags been broken By an enemy Raised on MTV, raised on you and me Have you ever really loved someone? Have you ever really loved someone? Gone Yeah it's gone The land I have known of in my youth Yeah it's gone and it's never coming back Where's our savior Not looking for a sign Just want something to clean The blood from my numb weary mind Have you ever really loved someone? Have you ever really loved someone?
