War Crimes
by
Travis Ray Cole
With only the skies to hide under
all the Lords gather in rain and thunder
like blood thoughts dry inside the drum
all the gods will return to the grave
and you will be the only one
fate and destiny will change
my only chance to fade away
the only path I'll follow you down
tombstones replace all my friends now
the only song we don't play
you'll bleed for me someday
out of your mind debts paid
kiss the wasted blood away
in prayer you summon the unwanted
toss aside the valued for nothing
look thru the art to keep yesterday from haunting
designed thoughts to believe in something
in hell you lust for disease
recycle religions
hypnotize and seduce me
money and idols breed sadness
I'm sorry,there is no free
in the confusion
I walk away
leave everything
it means nothing
theres no reason to be afraid
all the Lords lead you to false answers
lies line the walls of the greatest castles
the Gods we've choosen don't see us
and they themselves are worth more dead
it's time to walk away
