Lyrics

I'm not the shock and awe campaign

To find which hearts and minds remain

That can be sold a fast food chain

For the price of bread and novocaine

Another peasant family cursed

With their well-being a reverse

Chain of events that lead to this

Circumstances that I can't predict


I'd walk all night through smoke and rain

Before I'd let some sad refrain

Show it's facade to me again

And turn into my brightest flame

Just when you think the thing is slain

It rears its ugly head again

Didn't know the source of all that pain

Couldn't turn into my brightest flame...


Tell me who died and made you pay

For the way you treat those that you disdain

Who took your father's name in vain

As you made haste a sad display

Of what was once thought so perverse

No final prayers, no need of nurse

Did not think it would come to this

The truth we know it contradicts

Oh no, it's the weight of the world upon my sleeve

Oh no, I didn't think they would catch the melody

For sure, Backtracking my steps for all to see

Oh no, Nothing according to any foreseeable need


Oh but like a coin at the bottom of a wishing well

Or all the good intentions that can pave the road to hell

Oh but like a heart made out of asterisks

Or the deviations that can play your mind a trick


Oh no, but like a coin at the bottom of a wishing well

Or all the good intentions that pave the road to hell...
