Another Bag Of Bones
作词:Kevin Patrick Devine
It's a brushfire spreading, feeding as it moves It's a disappeared glacier, it's an airborne flu It's your disbelieving eyes locked in concrete miles It's your yawning conscious and your lawyer's smile
It's an occupied country, foaming at the mouth No smoking gun, no mushroom cloud It's a military mother with a boy in hell And it's a flag draped casket down an oil well
It's an Argentine school girl, gagged and bound It's a torture camp, it's a long way down It's the constant brace and shock of now It's the whole damn world turned inside out, alright
It's a march to extinction with your God in step It's his name in your mouth, it's his cross on your neck It's a farm boy sprinting over desert dirt And he's panting the 'Our Father' in staccato spurts
Now that's his automatic rifle and it tells no lies That's his truth in your stomach, it's no alibi But the trouble lies on the other side With an equal truth prepping for his holy night 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网
He sees his crescent and the star in the virgin sky He hears the call of milk and honey from the afterlife And as he eases to the checkpoint, he is calm and sure It's collateral damage, it's the cost of war
It's another bag of bones for the gods to sort It's another bag of bones for the gods to sort
It's the species disappearing, all the birds fly south In a January heat wave and a pulsing crowd It's an African militia, kids with sub machines It's a conflict diamond on your bride to be
It's the dispossessed lining up every gate It's the facts worth facing, faced way too late It's the mission of modernity, go get what's yours 'Til there's nothing leftover to get no more
And it's not what were owed but it's what we've earned And it's closer than we realized that it's time now to burn And oh, it's time now to burn And oh, it's time now to burn And oh, it's time now to burn, to burn
