Jennifer Lost The War
Jennifer lost the war today You'll find her burned
and raped Through it all She must have wondered What have I done But nobody
really cares today The world's a busy place Guess she must have really
sinned I guess we're all just soldiers She was only six years old Left
to die by strangers Her family waits And if we're all just soldiers Is
it so wrong to be afraid Phoebe lost the war today There must be some mistake
Say it happens all the time And it's said and done And Little Miss 1565
Your soul remains unclaimed Guess you must have really sinned Morality
won't help her When she lies silent in a morgue And all our sorrows just
don't count at all But will the morning headlines Even say that it's a
shame What are we headin' for Seen it all before Silent on the ground As
he's walking away And I wonder how many more Everybody takes it Like it's
nothing at all Jennifer lost the war.
Elders
When we younger There always seemed like Some perfect
mold That we're supposed to be But now we're growing up and I see it's
just not that way Now I feel like someones lied to me Cause I've been true
Made good for you And now I feel used I'm asking you How does it feel How
does it feel How does it feel To be like you Tell me now elders What were
your reasons for Making it seem Like you were so much more If you want
to feel good Because of our accomplishments Why the fuck Don't you just
do it yourself Cause I've tried Man I've tried While you all lied So now
just tell me How does it feel How does it feel How does it feel To be like
you Look at all the families now Who don't talk and don't trust Because
of the way That things have been done When will you finally learn To leave
out the bullshit And just be straight with us.
Out On Patrol
Look at my soldier boy now With that big gun in
your little hand As you patrol this foreign land Hear the mine that clicks
beneath your feet Now do you see the light Fading while your world is crumbling
Out on patrol And all you can do is sit and stare What revelation have
you now What culmination to your speck of life Your moment in time As you
sit here all alone Will your buddies come and save your life But as the
enemy appears See your life flash before your eyes.
Crossroads
Time has washed away And now I may wonder How did
it all slip by Cause I always thought We had forever Future calls to me
To take me away from things I don't want to leave behind Like I'm slipping
away I can't hold on Find that path alone Crossroads lead me away But that's
not what worries me I just want to know what's home Through it all My mind
still wanders To the one who touched my soul Though her road leads away
She's still my True love I could believe Will is not enough when all those
Lost days stand in the way But she was My hopes and dreams my Whole world
I could believe I still want to know Who can see for me Crossroads tell
me Now you'll have to trade Your past away And find another day So is change
a friend or an enemy Through what comes to pass I'll find my way I've seen
it all before But is the best you can be The best thing to be Some people
say You're just wasting time But that's not what worries me I just want
to know what's home.
Demons
Clouds pass over the moon Like an eye that shows
impending doom Tension in this misty air Souls pass into the room Drawn
in by a lost memory You will join them in the moonlight You are my offering
Your soul transcends The centuries of pain Your misery in life Is your
ecstasy in death Time passes like the wind As we race to beat days dusky
grin Mornings just a moment away Your body glistens in candlelight As we
all look on in fiendish delight The ritual is just beginning Come fulfill
the prophecy With our demons of debauchery As virgins and spectres sing
This madness will never cease In the dead of night You will follow In the
footsteps of many others Who have come before I will show you the altar
Your Aztec eyes, Egyptian hair Your beauty bestoved upon my lair I've loved
you before, in other lives But you've never meant as much to me Never meant
as much to me as now In this night of sacrifice where blood is spilt That
will never spill again But in your linen robes We want you now We want
you now You could never ask for more than that You are my offering Your
soul transcends The centuries of pain Your misery in life Is your ecstasy
in Come fulfill the prophecy With our demons of debauchery This madness
will never cease.
Beheaded
Mommy doesn't have a head any more Keep it underneath
my bed on the floor Well that's alright, that's o.k. She never really used
her head anyway Daddy called me a silly bore Bet he won't say that any
more Because the way his body is severed too His vocal chords are gonna
be hard to use Beheaded, watch you spurt like a garden hose Beheaded, bloody
mess all over my clothes Watch my girl friend come to the door Chop off
her head, she falls to the floor Now watching my baby's jugular blow Really
makes my motor go Wrap a towel round the bloody stump Take my baby's body
to the city dump Then wipe the mess off the bloody axe Scoop all the heads
into my burlap sack Beheaded, watch her spurt like a garden hose Beheaded,
bloody mess all over my clothes All my collection, adorns my room on bamboo
poles Use to be a little, but a little got more and more Now I'm craving
yours Night brings bad dreams, bad dreams and guillotines Off with her
head Off with her head Off with her head Off with her head Off with her
head Off with her head Find another victim for my machine Put him in a
home-made guillotine Blade falls, gonna need a casket Watch your head plop
in a wicker basket Leave the house at a quarter to four Come back with
sixteen or more Cause the more I walk, the more I see I got a funny feeling
coming over me Beheaded, watch you spurt like a garden hose Beheaded, bloody
mess all over my clothes.
Tehran
In your plane in the blue sky You roam again Words
that echo in your mind Make your heart beat faster This is no Vietnam We
will win in Iran The Captain said kill or die Islam be damned Make your
last stand In Tehran Warrior, the time bombs About to go What will you
feel Will you even wonder If the man that's in your sights Ever kissed
his girl goodbye The President said let it ride Islam be damned Make your
last stand In Tehran Great Satan Our flags our burning Soon America may
find Its young men in the sand Where there casualty Is just a number In
Iran The President said let it ride You will be damned Make your last stand
In Tehran.
A Thousand Days
Ask me no questions and I'll tell you I'll tell
you no lies When all is said and done Does it really matter who's wrong
or right Don't ask me for a reason, I can't explain Why we hurt one another
again and again As I lie bleeding here I still I still reach for you A
thousand days Have passed away A thousand days Were captured in her eyes
Your eyes are open now but you know It's still hard to see inside When
action and intention Are two seperate things Now I somehow wish I could
explain Why we hurt each other again and again Like someone on his dying
breath I still reach for you A thousand days Have passed away A thousand
days Were captured in her eyes Forever we've been Trapped by our hearts
Trapped by our minds I'd like to leave I'd like to win at love But I just
can't let it go And I just can't watch it slipping away And I just can't
let it go And I just can't stand another minute Maybe now someday our shattered
live Will mend themselves again But now a million miles away I still wish
I could And though I somehow know, I can't explain Why we hurt one another
again and again Like someone on his dying breath I still reach for you.
Blackball
In this world of hate and shallowness Where enemies
become your consolation And those of us who win the game give up our minds
I don't call that winning Say this doesn't apply to you But ask yourself
first What have I done today to win the game And just what have I sacrificed
Win the battle lose the war I know I've played this game before When people
were still real I don't want this anymore It's time for me to close the
door There's nothing left to feel Reflect on all our yesterdays My own
words choke me Why were they spoken Regret for the things I've said and
done Just can't compare with Regret for those that I have never tried So
blame this world or blame yourself It's really all the same When you are
standing on the precipice From which you just cannot return Win the battle
or lose the war I know I've played this game before When people were still
real I don't want this anymore It's time for me to close the door There's
nothing left to feel In the style of forgotten men I look to my horizon
I see nothing While thoughts of guns and desecration Sweep through my mind
But only coffins and bones remain As I look to you The emptiness behind
your eyes Seals my decision Can't carry on in this world of jugglers Where
all this thoughtlessness and bludgeonings Your key to success What kind
of tradition to carry on Blackball The new disease Blackball The new disease
Blackball Your evil ways Have found their way inside me Blackball The new
disease Blackball The new disease Blackball For a better life In this high
tech dog eat dog existence.
I'll Be Waiting
Once I had a friend that I could count on So I
thought Well so it seemed But times of need are not enough To prove your
friendship to me now Once I saw a face that I believed in But a mask was
all there was So who wears the masks and who wears the faces Well I guess
I'll never know But as I stand here alone in a room full of people With
nothing to say Beer on their minds, and smoke in the air Call them feiends
but they just don't care Friend for life Such shallow words for broken
minds Show me a friend for life Cause I'll be waiting for that day to arrive
When I'll feel alive I'll be waiting for that day Once I found a love I
had to know Now we might know each other just too well Cause when we're
together we just can't get enough Or is it we just can't get what we want
Once I saw a dream, I had to chase it Dreams quickly turn to reality Who's
at fault in this game of yours and mine Well I guess I'll never know But
as I sit here alone Think of the girl who came softly inside me The look
in her eyes, the smell of her hair Call her my own but is she really there?
Love for life Such noble words for noble minds Show me a love for life
Cause
I'll be waiting for that day to arrive When I'll feel alive I'll be waiting
for that day Once I had a friend that I could count Times of need are not
enough Once I found a love I had to know Now we might know each other just
too well Once I saw a dream I had to chase Dreams quickly turn to reality
Now let me close my eyes Because I don't want to see anything anymore.
Kill The President
In a world without leaders Who'd start all the
wars? The world that you're saving Will always be yours Kill the
President Listen to the voice of reason Unify with that single line Stop
the man with the power Of the government A leader's not the center Of democracy
In a world without leaders Who'd make people starve? The world that
we're saving Will always be ours Everyone says Well maybe I'll make a difference
Thinking they've got plenty of time But you're squeezed A little tighter
everyday Punished before you can commit a crime In a world without leaders
Who'd start all the wars? The world that you're saving Will always
be yours Kill the President Listen to the voice of reason Unify with that
single line Stop the man with the power Of the goverment A leader's not
the center Of democracy America All of your enemies Come from within But
you lash out so It is seen Like some frightened child In an angry world
Or the fall of Rome Your demise comes From your own hands In a world without
leaders Who'd start all the wars? The world that you're saving Will
always be yours In a world without leaders We might have a chance But we'll
never see it As long as there's.
