The Fall Of War

How many lost people will lose so you could gain
Is it possible for you to make the Earth spin faster?
How much will they pay for your mistakes?
Could you sleep better if you were sane?
Oh America

Why pray to a flag?
It won't wrap you up and keep you warm
Why set the times for you to fight?
When you fall asleep, you won't dream with clocks under your arms
Oh America

Destiny isn't charted or drawn
Faith is an imagination
Hope is a give and take kind of thing
Domination is your mostly likely flaw, but I hate it
Oh America

Stop
Drop your weapons

She Glided Through The Doors

My young love said to me as she glided through the doors
'My mother would mine and my father showed a lack of care for your kind'
Then she stepped away from me and then she did say
'it will not be long love until the wedding day'
She stepped away from me and she glided through the doors
And finally i watched her with the need to massage away her sores
And she made her way forward and stopped to find her reflection floating on a nearby lake
As time ran away from her mind - i stood in front of the church and wondered was she purposely making me wait

Last night she came to me
She glided through my door
So lightly she came with the moonlit glow in her eyes
Then she laid her hand on me and then she did say
'love, we can't hold off our wedding day'

Still i wait for my swan at the head of the aille
As the silence grew tense i peeled away my smile
Then when it was past four- the rushing wind came speeding in
And finally where my bride stood - she glided towards me

War and Hell

Did you honestly think that you was going
to get away with deceiving him?
The only one who placed lovely plants outside your door,
and make the stars shine all night long.
Do you really believe this world is yours and yours alone?
Well, he'll show you.
Now it's War.
Watch the flames erupt
Sizzle from under your feet
War and Hell.
Watch the flames erupt
The desert sun beams to add more heat
Crawlin' on sand
No water and no pails
Coughing and soar
War and Hell
War and Hell.

Do you wish you was better?
Do you wish you was on his side?
