	Beside an unused union hall
	And an abandoned factory
	By the Allegheny River
	In another rust belt city
	You can see the well-dressed families
	On Memorial Day
	Reading the names on the walls
	Of all those who went away
	Who went off in a ship
	And came back in a bag
	Packed into a coffin
	Wrapped up in a flag
	I saw a war on every stone
	I read a name on every line
	And when I reached the end
	A chill ran down my spine
	Four blank slates
	For battlefields yet unknown
	That soon some will call their own
	A wordless message in a frame
	Four blank slates
	For the dice that aren’t yet tossed
	For the lives that aren’t yet lost
	For a war without a name
	What will be written on that stone
	Will it be on Persian soil
	Will they say it was for freedom
	Or Venezuelan oil
	The only thing that’s certain
	Is it will be across the sea
	And the new names on this rock
	Will have died in someone else’s country
	Four blank slates
	For battlefields yet unknown
	That soon some will call their own
	A wordless message in a frame
	Four blank slates
	For the dice that aren’t yet tossed
	For the lives that aren’t yet lost
	For a war without a name
	How many other nations
	Are already planning their next war
	How many people know
	It’ll be on someone else’s shore
	Will there come a time
	When all good people are enraged
	To see a slate awaiting
	A war that’s not yet waged
	Four blank slates
	For battlefields yet unknown
	That soon some will call their own
	A wordless message in a frame
	Four blank slates
	For the dice that aren’t yet tossed
	For the lives that aren’t yet lost
	For a war without a name

	Beside an unused union hall
	And an abandoned factory
	By the Allegheny River
	In another rust belt city
	You can see the welldressed families
	On Memorial Day
	Reading the names on the walls
	Of all those who went away
	Who went off in a ship
	And came back in a bag
	Packed into a coffin
	Wrapped up in a flag
	I saw a war on every stone
	I read a name on every line
	And when I reached the end
	A chill ran down my spine
