Sixteen Military Wives

This song is about the disparity of the American people and those whom we consume so that we can exist freely. It talks about the military wives who must bear the burden of their husband's sacrifice so that we may be happy.The verse that spoke to me most was about the students in the academy chairs, i feel that this embodies the apathy that our youth today have towards everything and how our 'celebrity minds' can only focus on things that are flashy or shocking or popular. The Newscaster saying la-de-dah is to represent that either the news that we hear is actually drivel or to again reinforce the inability of the American people to look at the reality of the world around them. Americans are the cannibal kings who subsist on the lives of those who have served and died for our country and those celebrities whose lives we exploit and twist to make us feel better about ourselves.
