embitter doesn't roll off my tongue easily

reluctantly
i know things have been inching
in that direction for quite a while

my dad would often say
we can't let the bastards win

and i agree
but there can be honor in losing

still
there's no excuse for making excuses
for anyone who knows better

put away the flag
they all drip blood
