Pain in my heart
Pain in my heart but it don't mean
a thing
found out, at last,that he won't be
homecomeing 'cept in a box
yeah, but is was so long ago
but the b.s. keeps coming
M.I.A after so much time it don't mean
a damn thing
but the damn time is what's completely
numbing
I knew him when we'd play touch football
Then too many beers at Stoneybrook
your brain would be humming.
Man, back then we thought it a joke
But, now, Christ, nothing but smoke.
and now there our are kids and grand kids
doing their duty.
I wish I couldn't say so, but it must
be said: there's thing's we must fight
for.
A better life? Freedom from tyranny?
Cheaper gas and oil...you have a right to
name it. But once it's been said
can you stand behind it, despite the
dead.
this is a cruel, mean world, with teeth and
claws, all red. With the blood of
innocents.
And I wish It could be prayed that there's
hope for salvation
there is a better plan
but, may god help us, there's little
better than, turning the other cheek,
But once struck then, beating the hell
out of the offending hand cockeyed
