ATTACK
Breathing each other's lives
Holding this in mind
That if we fall, we all fall
And we fall alone
The cold insincerity of steel machines
Have consumed our euphoria
Transforming us into muted dreams
Dreaming of the day that
We attack
Attack, attack your fetal servitude
We attack
Attack, attack, attack with pesticide
We attack
All the years of propaganda
We shall attack
Books illustrate what we already know
Candles cry towards the sky
Racing your flags along polluted coasts
Dreaming of the day that
We attack
Attack, attack your fetal servitude
We attack
Attack, attack, attack with pesticide
We attack
All the years of propaganda
We shall attack
Attack
Attack
Breathing each other's lives
Holding this in mind
That if we fall, we all fall
And we fall alone
Breathing each other's lives
Holding this in mind
That if we fall, we all fall
And we fall alone
What's the philosophy of displaced mines The bombing of all homes and
villages Truth is the only sword bleeding minds Bleeding till the day that
We attack
Attack, attack your fetal servitude
We attack
Attack, attack, attack with pesticide
We attack
All the years of propaganda
We shall attack
Attack all the homes and villages
Attack all the schools and hospitals
You attack all the rapes and pillages
We shall attack
We shall attack
DREAMING
For today we will take the body parts and put them on the wall
For treated indigenously, digenously
Human right is private blue chip, pry
We're the prophetic generation of bottled water, bottled water
Causing poor populations to die, to die, to die (For treated
indigenously, digenously) (Human right is private blue chip, pry)
You, you went beyond and you lost it all Why did you go there From
beyond you saw it all why did you
We lost consumer confidence in casual karma, casual karma
Confetti, camouflage, camouflage, the flage, the flage
(For treated indigenously, digenously)
(Human right is private blue chip, pry)
We're the prophetic generation of bottled water, bottled water
Causing poor populations to die, to die, to die
(For treated indigenously, digenously)
(Human right is private blue chip, pry)
You, you went beyond and you lost it all Why did you go there From
beyond you saw it all why did you go there
She lost her mind
Someone kicked her into the back of the line
She lost her head
When they called and they said that they thought he was dead
Dreaming of screaming
Someone kick me out of my mind
I hate these thoughts I can't deny
Dreaming of screaming
Someone kick me out of my mind
I hate these thoughts I can't de--
We lost consumer confidence in casual karma, casual karma
Confetti, camouflage, camouflage, the flage, the flage (For treated
indigenously, digenously) (Human right is private blue chip, pry)
We're the prophetic generation of bottled water, bottled water
Causing poor populations to die, to die, to die
(For treated indigenously, digenously)
(Human right is private blue chip, pry)
You, you went beyond and you lost it all Why did you go there From
beyond you saw it all why did you
Dreaming of screaming
Someone kick me out of my mind
I hate these thoughts I can't deny
Dreaming of screaming
Someone kick me out of my mind
I hate these thoughts I can't deny
You will take the body parts and put them up on the wall And bring the
dark disaster
KILL ROCK 'N ROLL
So I felt like the biggest asshole

Crack pipes, needles, PCP and fast cars
Kind of mix really well in a dead movie star If I feel like talking, I
never be wrong If I feel like walking, you best come along
I close my windows
Crank the heat up high
Till my palms are wet
And my tongue is dry
I'm looking for a mother
That will get me high
Just a stupid motherfucker
If I die, I die
I'm a midnight fistfight
Looking for a mother
That will get me high
Just a stupid motherfucker
If I die, I die
I'm a midnight fistfight
Looking for a mother
That will get me high
Just a stupid motherfucker
If I die, I die
Alright

If I die, I die

I'm looking for a mother
That will get me high
I'm a stupid motherfucker
If I die, I die
(Two skies, two suns, watching them all go)
Yeah, alright, yeah, alright
TENTATIVE
Superstition taking all of us for a ride Mimes overtaken by the signs of
the Right The bombs are falling overhead with no sight While you are
talking all detached, so tell us
Where you going
To the bottom
Do you hear us
We are rotting
We're going down in a spiral to the ground No one, no one's gonna save
us now
Ceremonies have killed religions for they provide The masked comforts to
delusionals, they're all in fright The true believer's head was bathed
in sunlight While you are walking all detached, so tell us
Where you going
To the bottom
Do you hear us
We are rotting
We're going down in a spiral to the ground No one, no one's gonna save
us now Not even God, no one saved us No one's gonna save us
Where do you expect us to go when the bombs fall?

LONELY DAY
Such a lonely day
And it's mine
The most loneliest day of my life
Such a lonely day
Should be banned
It's a day that I can't stand
The most loneliest day of my life
The most loneliest day of my life
Such a lonely day
Shouldn't exist
It's a day that I'll never miss
Such a lonely day
And it's mine
The most loneliest day of my life
And if you go
I wanna go with you
And if you die
I wanna die with you
Take your hand
And walk away
The most loneliest day of my life
The most loneliest day of my life
The most loneliest day of my life
Such a lonely day
And it's mine
It's a day that I'm glad I survived
SOLDIER SIDE
Dead men lying on the bottom of the grave
Wondering when Savior comes
Is he gonna be saved
Maybe you're a sinner into your alternate life
Maybe you're a joker, maybe you deserve to die
They were crying when their sons left
God is wearing black
He's gone so far to find no hope
He's never coming back
They were crying when their sons left
All young men must go
He's come so far to find the truth
He's never going home
Young men standing on the top of their own graves
Wondering when Jesus comes
Are they gonna be saved
Cruelty to the winner, Bishop tells the King his lies
Maybe you're a mourner, maybe you deserve to die
They were crying when their sons left
God is wearing black
He's gone so far to find no hope
He's never coming back
They were crying when their sons left
All young men must go
He's come so far to find no truth
He's never going home
Welcome to the Soldier Side
Where there's no one here but me
People all grow up to die
There is no one here but me
Welcome to the Soldier Side
Where there's no one here but me
People on the soldier's side
There is no one here but me
