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 |
