*boom*
Why can’t I *boom*
Shoot to kill *boom*
Pull the trigger *boom*
Close your eyes *boom*

Why can’t I *boom*
Shoot to kill *boom*
Pull the trigger *boom*
Close your eyes
So it seems *boom*
We kill our dreams *boom*
The bullet weaves *boom*
Right through the seams *boom*

Back when life was for the honest man
We’d wash the pain away with blood on hour hands
Because time heals every wound
You pray for death, it’s coming soon
If we could take back every lie
Every broken promise, every tear that dried
Would we have been better men?
To give back every dollar unrightfully spent
But as it is we live in hell
We lie and cheat we might as well
Families burned out of house and home
In order for us to have what we own

Trinkets and toys
For our girls and boys
While their boys and girls
Watch their world burn
And the ashes fall like snow
As if you didn’t know
You just turned your heads
While children sleep without beds
Their parent’s souls are black as rain
Their world will never burn again!

Why can’t I *boom*
Shoot to kill *boom*
Pull the trigger *boom*
Close your eyes *boom*
So it seems *boom*
We kill our dreams *boom*
The bullet weaves *boom*
Right through the seams *boom*

The bombs now fall like rain
Upon the foreigners terrain
Our inexhaustible greed
Has set fire to their fields of green
For few to live many must die
It has been this way since the beginning of time
When the cost of living needs to rise
Some bodies need to close their eyes
