I'll just give you a bit of a mixtape. I'm going to quote some Matthew Good (Band) lyrics here that I think are applicable to how I feel about this war.
"While We Were Hunting Rabbits"
Buy in it'll shut you up
Try it, it should shut you up
We've brought someone in to shut you up
It's a life's work
While we were hunting rabbits
I came upon a clear
The sky its stars like fortune drilled me
Until now I was a soldier
Until now I dealt in fear
These years of cloak and dagger
Have left us disappeared
And I dance and I sing
And I'm a monkey in a long line
Buy in it'll shut you up
Try it, it should shut you up
We've brought someone in to shut you up
And it's getting to be light work
While we were hunting rabbits
I came upon a clear
The sky its stars like fortune filled me
Until now I was a soldier
Until now I dealt in fear
These years of cloak and dagger
Have left us disappeared
And I dance and I sing
And I'm a monkey in a long line of kings
And we dance and we sing
And we're all monkeys in a long line
I'm just a boat on the ocean
And I'm just a ship lost at sea

Also, this one really comes to mind for me:
"Rat Who Would Be King"
Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while
Once you're in you're pretty much fluffed
When I was the rat
The rat who would be king
I imagined typhoid and us alone
Always us alone
And I've waited on the sidelines all this time
And I've a grenade
With our names scratched on the side
But that's love
And you know that love's not enough
Crawl from the sea
Wait for some thumbs
A greatness to breed
Build the mall of America
When I was rat
The rat would be king
I imagined ashes and us alone
Always us alone
And I've waited on the sidelines all this time
And I've a grenade
With our names scratched on the side
But that's just love
And you know that love's not enough
