Philosophy of Loss |
Welcome to why the church has died |
And the heart of the exile and the kingdom of hate |
Who owns the land and keeps the commands |
And marries itself to the state |
Modern scribes write in jesus christ |
Everyone is free |
And the doors open wide to all straight men and women |
But they are not open to me Who is teaching kids to be soldiers |
To be marked by a plain white cross |
And we kill just a little to save a lot more |
The philosophy of loss |
Now there are a few who would be true |
Out of love and love is hard |
And don’t think that our hands haven’t shoveled the dirt |
Over their central american graveyards |
Doctors and witch hunters stripped you bare |
Left you nothing for your earthly sins |
Yeah but who made this noise just a bunch of boys |
And the one with the most toys wins |
And who is teaching kids to be gamblers |
Life is a coin toss |
And of course what you give up is what you gain |
The philosophy of loss |
Whatever has happened to anyone else |
Could happen to you and to me And the end of my youth was the possible truth |
That it all happens randomly |
So who is teaching kids to be leaders |
And the way that it is is meant to be The philosophy of loss |
