Over Hiroshima

Jan 21, 2006 20:05

contained within the chasm of this vessel
the timer's set to blow
blue on red wired reasons
to destroy this lovely home
shatter veins of brick and bone
battle lines drawn head to toe
raise your weapon, stay down low

we'll run to safety
scar our flesh in regret
down in the canyon
begin again

this dizzy dance of fire
takes him back
until the smoke has cleared
with bullets praying on the smallest sound
of eager lips
destruction of the man once held strong
just hold the hill now it won't be long
before impact

we'll run to safety
bathe our sins in this mess
branded on these bellies
transmission end
we'll run
we'll run
to safety

we'll run to safety
scar our flesh in regret
down in the valley
begin again
we'll run
we'll run
to safety
