Hammer Down

I don't want the world you bled for me
Standing at the edge of reality
I can see beyond these eyes
That something here just isn't right
Support a war and the walls that keep you in
Take a side and don't let your brother in
Intimidate the threat you can't deny is something in your heart
We are not invisible to the suffering we know
They lied
About the sky and moon
They ride together to our doom
When we get it right
For one moment then it's gone
Might be enough to carry us and together we'll drag on and on
Medicate then slowly subjugate
Arm the hate and film it for the race
Marching out to be the face
Of a nation lost in its disgrace
I don't want the world you bled for me standing at the edge of reality
I can see beyond these eyes
If you cross me twice there's gunna be a fight
I sleep with one eye open as America she sings to me
We dream like desperados
Sleeping on our empty graves
Only to find we lost ourselves
In the memory of better days
One would never take us
One would put us underground
The other wept like flowers
Blooming on your grave
