100 Generations |
| We ate our young and never blinked an eye |
| We carved the subway tunnels and prayed to snipers in the sky |
| We practiced medicine without knowing how to heal |
| We killed ourselves in dreams a thousand times, always believing it was real |
| We gave birth silently to jargon, metal, smoke |
| And mirrors that we kissed until they clouded up and broke |
| We fed a starving child with an apple’s knowing taste |
| Denying 'till her dying tears the poison with which it had been laced |
| So father kill your daughter |
| Mother kill your son |
| Swallow up the universe |
| 'Till all the killing’s done |
| It happens when you slumber |
| It happens unaware |
| Out of every human eye |
| A hundred generations' stare |
| If you lose your eyes, you will see |
| And if you lose your faith, you will believe |
| If you lose your blood, no more will you bleed |
| And if you lose all your desires, nevermore will you need |
| If you lose your light, you will glow |
| And if you lose your mind, you will know |
| If you lose your youth, no more will you grow |
| And if you learn to stand your ground, there’ll be nowhere left to go |
| So father kill your daughter |
| Mother kill your son |
| Swallow up the universe |
| 'Till all the killing’s done |
| It happens when you slumber |
| It happens unaware |
| Out of every human eye |
| A hundred generations' stare |
| Come here to mend |
| What’s come before will come again |
