It's just like a battle zone. You got a bottle, now you're on your own. Gotta be a scotch or a kamikaze. None of those other weapons will faze me. . First of the last calls.
Find me a country. Far from my home. Sent me on an airline. They told me where I'm going. . Well, I know they tried to get me here. Just to see if I would fly.
If I listened to the things that you said. Everything would fall apart. If I did all the things that you do. Everything could fall apart. . Let's not listen to the things that they say.
Well they divided up all the land. And we've got states and cities. Cities have their neighborhoods. And more subdivisions. . There's countries divided by walls.
Deadly skies, deadly night dreams. Well, it's no lie to say what I've seen. I've seen the end of the grand scheme. 'Cause we all die by our worst means.
Well, could you be the one they talk about?. Well, hiding inside behind another door. Or is it only happiness you want?. Does wanting a feeling matter any more?.
I picked up my belongings in a nylon carry-all. Heard the porter call. . He said "the sky's the limit on this chartered trip away". . I guess I'd better stay.
Brick on your head. From the top of the ceiling. Urban sniper, urban killer. Won't be finished. Until you're dead. Urban sniper, urban killer. . Brick out the window, top of the head.
It's a one-horse town. One big desert. The asphalt waste. Asphalt jungle. . Beyond the threshold, beyond the threshold. . Change for the worse. Change nonetheless.
I can walk the bed of nails. I'm not the only one. But some, they cannot walk the jagged line. Callous, concentrating. For nails are sharp as lies. I run the jagged line.
In a free land, we watch our victories,. killing our annoyances as the troops march away.. We talk of no more, for there's a price to pay.. In a free land, children starve and are beaten to death..
Confusion all the time. Passion and aggression, it's a real fine line. The pendulum it swings. You keep pushing buttons while I'm pulling strings. . You say you want it now, yeah.
Who was around when the world was falling down?. Who turned away? Couldn't bother to be around this now. Who walked away when the game wasn't fun to play?.
You plead with yourself but its me that you want. Its the same thing every time, every time. I am determined not to fall into that trap again. Its the things I need for myself and not a way to validate.
All along the Internet. Snuff movies and animal sex. It burned my eyes and made them cry. I didn't feel a thing. . Already beat my memory. No sense of attention.

Kept my heart locked away. I kept it far away from me. Found a place down by the river where nobody goes. Buried far beneath the levee. . Places where I used to go.

Here's the town we live in. This is how the band lays out. I bought a map. So I could find my way around, way around. . Taped the map on the wall. Studied every avenue.
