Veteran Of Psychic Wars |
You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars |
I’ve been living on the edge so long, where the winds of limbo roar |
And I’m young enough to look at, and far too old to see |
All the scars are on the inside |
I’m not sure that there’s anything left of me |
Don’t let these shakes go on, it’s time we had a break from it |
It’s time we had some leave |
We’ve been living in the flames |
We’ve been eating up our brains |
Oh please, don’t let these shakes go on |
You ask me why I’m weary, why I can’t speak to you |
You blame me for my silence, say it’s time I changed and grew |
But the war’s still going on, dear, and there’s nowhen that I know |
And I can’t stand forever |
I can’t say if we’re ever gonna be free |
Don’t let these shakes go on, it’s time we had a break from it |
It’s time we had some leave |
We’ve been living in the flames |
We’ve been eating up our brains |
Oh please, don’t let these shakes go on |
You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars |
My energy is spent at last, and my armor is destroyed |
I have used up all my weapons, and I’m helpless and bereaved |
Wounds are all I’m made of |
Did I hear you say that this is victory? |
Don’t let these shakes go on, it’s time we had a break from it |
Send me to the rear |
Where the tides of madness swell |
And men sliding into hell |
Oh please, don’t let these shakes go on |
