One Hundred Years |
It doesn’t matter if we all die |
Ambition in the back of a black car |
In a high building there is so much to do Going home time |
A story on the radio |
Something small falls out of your mouth |
And we laugh |
A prayer for something better |
A prayer |
For something better |
Please love me Meet my mother |
But the fear takes hold |
Creeping up the stairs in the dark |
Waiting for the death blow |
Stroking your hair as the patriots are shot |
Fighting for freedom on the television |
Sharing the world with slaughtered pigs |
Have we got everything? |
She struggles to get away… |
The pain |
And the creeping feeling |
A little black haired girl |
Waiting for saturday |
The death of her father pushing her |
Pushing her white face into the mirror |
Aching inside me And turn me around |
Just like the old days |
Just like the old days |
Caressing an old man |
And painting a lifeless face |
Just a piece of new meat in a clean room |
The soldiers close in under a yellow moon |
All shadows and deliverance |
Under a black flag |
A hundred years of blood |
Crimson |
The ribbon tightens around my throat |
I open my mouth |
And my head bursts open |
A sound like a tiger thrashing in the water |
Thrashing in the water |
Over and over |
We die one after the other |
Over and over |
We die one after the other after the other |
It feels like a hundred years |
One hundred years |
