Backlit |
| We’re the scraps left behind in ground zero |
| From the blast that came to collect on its debt |
| Blowing a gale over the corpses |
| Over the hills that swallowed our footsteps |
| We kill the time as it was done to us |
| We point our hands in the shapes of guns and we time it |
| All washed out and fading in the foreground |
| The hammer draws back, go find your peace |
| We’re the great whale hooked and robbed of it’s hide |
| As the jaybird watches yellow jackets close in |
| Gulf War, empty the beds of our fathers |
| Arms race — let fly the wolves in our hearts |
| Get up with 27 minutes left in '68 every day |
| Everything. |
| Nothing. |
| Me |
| Everything. |
| Nothing. |
| Me |
| We kill the time as it was done to us |
| We point our hands in the shapes of guns and we time it |
| All washed out and fading in the foreground |
| The hammer draws back, go find your peace |
| Nobody notices the cowards fall |
| Fall just like the brave |
| Nobody notices the cowards fall |
| Fall just like the brave |
| All washed out and fading in the foreground |
| The hammer draws back, go find your peace |
| Everything. |
| Nothing. |
| Me |
| Everything. |
| Nothing. |
| Me |
