Take My Hand is about the war over in Iraq. It talks about how maybe the war is not as just as it is projected sometimes.

The chorus was thought up on my way back up to my dorm from a calculus course. An hour later, a song was born.
Lyrics
American story
About the stories told about the war in other land
A reporter shooting all the events
Showing what is real and all that he can
Every day calls for something
A little extra from not so extra ordinary
You see this man was only doing his job
Soon enough he would have to carry
Take my hand...He said now
Take my hand
Take my hand...He said now
Take my hand
I have seen the war
And it's a hell of a lot more than I could ever bargained for
Don't you see they spoon feed these lies
Another one wounded and another one dies
I have seen the war
And it's a hell of a lot more than I could ever bargained for
Don't you see they spoon feed these lies
Another one wounded and another one dies
Bombs went off
And shells were heard as the world began to spin
The reporter snapped his camera still
He was never really ready for this
Out of the corner of his eye
He saw an allied man laying face down in the dirt
He quickly dropped his camera, ran to help
He only saved life by a bit I'm sure
Take my hand...He said now
Take my hand
Take my hand...He said now
Take my hand
I have seen the war
And it's a hell of a lot more than I could ever bargained for
Don't you see they spoon feed these lies
Another one wounded and another one dies
I have seen the war
And it's a hell of a lot more than I could ever bargained for
Don't you see they spoon feed these lies
Another one wounded and another one dies
Get this man a medal
He's the only one who's been shooting rightfully
Can't you see the innocence
Can't you see this irony
He's been growing so so old
But he's not gonna surrender
He's a fighter and a hero
He'll fight to the ender
I have seen the war
And it's a hell of a lot more than I could ever bargained for
Don't you see they spoon feed these lies
Another one wounded and another one dies
I have seen the war
And it's a hell of a lot more than I could ever bargained for
Don't you see they spoon feed these lies
Another one wounded and another one dies
Take my hand...He said now
Take my hand
Take my hand...He said now
Take my hand
