Today, as you listen to this song | |
Another 394,000 children were born into this world | |
They break like waves of hunger and desire upon these eroded shores | |
Carrying the curses of history and a history yet unwritten | |
The oil burns in thick black columns, the buzz saws echo through the forest floor | |
They shout give us our fair share, give us justice | |
Here comes the war | |
On a grey morning to the south of here | |
Two young men in makeshift uniforms peer into the misty light | |
And figures dart behind the trees | |
As a snap of rifle rounds echoes out across the fields | |
They hardly know their sacred mother tongue but they know their duty | |
To defend the flag hanging limp and bloody above the village church | |
While a thousand miles away, in a warehouse complex down by the river, | |
Young money men play paintball games | |
Here comes the war - put out the lights on the Age of Reason | |
So blow out the candle and tell us another of those great stories, | |
the ones about serial killers. Let dreams flow into savage times. | |
Do you hear the sirens scream across the city? | |
We've had three hot nights in succession - the riot season is here again | |
Dear Lord, lead us back into the Valley of the Shadow of Death, | |
Here comes the war. Did you think we were born in peaceful times? | |
Faster, faster, like a whirling dervish spinning round | |
Faster, faster, until the Centre cannot Hold | |
You screamed give us Liberty or give us Death | |
Now you've got both, what do you want next ? | |
Here comes the war - put out the lights on the Age of Reason. |
