Death of a Country
Living isn't as good as it seems Our country's dying before our eyes What has happened to cause this scene They say we're trying but it's only lies The man put us here to do good things Things to make him proud To keep us down he gave no wings To tell our fears we must be loud Our countries dying our breathing choked It's blood is filled with sin And of it's skin it's pocked with sores Where cold clean flesh had been Can you hear the sounds of progress, landing on the moon Can you hear the sounds of violence banging at your door Can you hear the sounds of laughter coming from the streets Looks like nothing is the same People turning me around I don't even know my name Getting tired of this cold world It's enough to bring you down Lies... gettin' tired of the same same lies Lies... all those lies can't take my eyes from all those lies Can you hear the sounds of progress landing on the moon Can you hear the sounds of violence banging on your door Can you hear the sounds of laughter coming from the streets Understand what this songs about it's a warning for you and me Look around when you go outside you'll feel... you'll smell... you'll see We gotta do something it won't be long come on and lend a hand Give back what what given to us Natures legacy a healthy man

Flowers dotting unlit worlds Men are searching lustered pearls Reaching far and grasping quick Men set out within their ship Future's gone it's present now Stars abound to show us how Find the answer to our dream Knowing it we'll want to scream Turn us back we shouldn't go Our way is blocked our hope is low Shining thru the beaded glass We watch the years begin to pass Backwards further time goes by From blue to red we watch the sky Land in masses then steaming earth Further back to watch the birth Days are gone it's always night The sun is blocked from our sight Giant mountains of harden mud Poring out earth's molten blood Further back till all's at ease A giant hand comes like a breeze It signals peace it gives us fear God pulls our plug we're stranded here

Flowing softly pinkish foam Clinging mass of swirling waste Eyes behold a sight of gloom Churning flesh come sliding home Bees and Birds their wings grown old Their speed has gone their legs deformed Tiny thoughts that never grew Are lost among the wetless dew Smoking rafts are floating high Reveal the deeds of days gone by Earth's own shroud now looks of gray It's seas and trees have turned to hay Echo's greet the ones who yell Warring tribes now own the world Science learning a search for truth Have slid beneath the roaming puke Man was great he touched the stars Now he breeds in rusty cars Where once stood cities spiraling high Now hangs death a poisoned sky

For countless hours I think of life My being seems meant to be My thoughts are bright my mind is clear My body shakes with health and fear Mornings gone the time stands still I look at life it brings a chill Before you came I was not known Now you leave I'm still alone I see a future burning near I'm not included you left me here Time has gone it's closed it's eye My God I'm scared don't let me die I know that you don't wanna see me Walking on your velvet floor Why don't you even wanna hear me Knocking at your golden door Well there's something I must tell you Before I go before I go yeah I've got to leave this place Gotta see you Lord, Gotta see you lord Gotta see my lord... Gotta see you lord Gotta see my lord... Gotta see you lord I see a future burning near I'm not included you left me here Time has gone it's closed it's eye My God I'm scared don't let me die... die

Greeting Gods of marbled stone Seizing nature on it's terms Tunneled love comes caving in Deserting us to where we've been Statues melt from molten lies Bits of sand infect my eyes Pull you head from putrid cheese Rape your mouth with stilling breeze Keep abreast of turmoiled times Prudent people mouth their lines Watch them work at being not Pump their ears make them hot Mellow melons rot with age So does man within a cage Unknown orphans reach their peak Greeting Gods of marbled stone
It shows it's scene without a choice It's looking eye is but a voice Reflecting sights that cause a time When helpless man begins to find The changing force of sinful ways The chilling thoughts of lonely days Now I sit with shaved hair My body's strapped, I fear this chair All right now... Fates a yell in times ever now One lives his life in quest of hope Seeing Speaking tells a tale Of how to live to each his own I scream, but ears have lost my sound I cannot breathe, I'm gagged and bound A crime of hate I have to bear... A fear of death This electric chair The twisting winds of death unfold My body slumps... I'm damp and cold Place my mind with nurtured needs Upon the lawn of fertile seeds Let me speak with lips sewn shut Of things I've done in mortal state I cannot scream so no one hears me They dare not look they show their fears My windows there the scenes the same I'm not here they've lost my name
