Civil war

Civil war
What we've got here is...failure to communicate.

Some men you just can't reach...

So, you get what we had here last week,

which is the way he wants it!

Well, he gets it!

N' I don't like it any more than you men." *



Look at your young men fighting

Look at your women crying

Look at your young men dying

The way they've always done before



Look at the hate we're breeding

Look at the fear we're feeding

Look at the lives we're leading

The way we've always done before



My hands are tied

The billions shift from side to side

And the wars go on with brainwashed pride

For the love of God and our human rights

And all these things are swept aside

By bloody hands time can't deny

And are washed away by your genocide

And history hides the lies of our civil wars



D'you wear a black armband

When they shot the man

Who said "Peace could last forever"

And in my first memories

They shot Kennedy

I went numb when I learned to see

So I never fell for Vietnam

We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all

That you can't trust freedom

When it's not in your hands

When everybody's fightin'

For their promised land



And

I don't need your civil war

It feeds the rich while it buries the poor

Your power hungry sellin' soldiers

In a human grocery store

Ain't that fresh

I don't need your civil war



Look at the shoes your filling

Look at the blood we're spilling

Look at the world we're killing

The way we've always done before

Look in the doubt we've wallowed

Look at the leaders we've followed

Look at the lies we've swallowed

And I don't want to hear no more



My hands are tied

For all I've seen has changed my mind

But still the wars go on as the years go by

With no love of God or human rights

'Cause all these dreams are swept aside

By bloody hands of the hypnotized

Who carry the cross of homicide

And history bears the scars of our civil wars



"WE PRACTICE SELECTIVE ANNIHILATION OF MAYORS AND GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS

FOR EXAMPLE TO CREATE A VACUUM

THEN WE FILL THAT VACUUM

AS POPULAR WAR ADVANCES

PEACE IS CLOSER" **



I don't need your civil war

It feeds the rich while it buries the poor

Your power hungry sellin' soldiers

In a human grocery store

Ain't that fresh

And I don't need your civil war

I don't need your civil war

I don't need your civil war

Your power hungry sellin' soldiers

In a human grocery store

Ain't that fresh

I don't need your civil war

I don't need one more war



I don't need one more war

Whaz so civil 'bout war anyway

Knockin'on heaven's door

Knockin'on heaven's door
Mama takes this badge from me
I cant use it anymore

It's getting dark too dark to see

Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door



Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door



Mama put my guns in the ground

I can't shoot them anymore

That cold black cloud is comin' down

Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door



Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door



"YOU JUST BETTER START SNIFFIN' YOUR OWN

RANK SUBJUGATION JACK 'CAUSE IT'S JUST

YOU AGAINST YOUR TATTERED LIBIDO, THE BANK

AND THE MORTICIAN, FOREVER MAN AND IT

WOULDN'T BE LUCK IF YOU COULD GET OUT OF

LIFE ALIVE"



Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

Estranged

Estranged
And nobody's home

You can fool yourself

You came in this world alone

(Alone)



So nobody ever told you baby

How it was gonna be

So what'll happen to you baby

Guess we'll have to wait and see

ONE, TWO



Old at heart but I'm only 28

And I'm much too young

To let love break my heart

Young at heart but it's getting much too late

To find ourselves so far apart



I don't know how you're s'posed

To find me lately

An what more could tou ask from me

How could you say that I never needed you

When you took everything

Said you took everything from me



Young at heart an it gets so hard to wait

When no one I know can seem to help me now

Old at heart but I musn't hesitate

If I'm to find my own way out



Still talkin' to myself

and nobody's home

(Alone)



So nobody ever told us baby

How it was gonna be

So what'll happen to us baby

Guess we'll have to wait and see



When I find out all the reasons

Maybe I'll find another way

Find another day

With all the changing seasons of my life

Maybe I'll get it right next time

An now that you've been broken down

Got your head out of the clouds

You're back down on the ground

And you don't talk so loud

An you don't walk so proud

Any more, and what for



Well I jumped into the river

Too many times to make it home

I'm out here on my own, an drifting all alone

If it doesn't show give it time

To read between the lines

'Cause I see the storm getting closer

And the waves they get so high

Seems everything We've ever known's here

Why must it drift away and die



I'll never find anyone to replace you

Guess I'll have to make it thru, this time- Oh this time

Without you



I knew the storm was getting closer

And all my friends said I was high

But everything we've ever known's here

I never wanted it to die

You could be mine

You could be mine
Fit ta burn and I'll rip

your heart in two

An I'll leave you lyin' on the bed

I'll be out the door before ya wake

It's nuthin' new ta you

'Cause I think we've seen that movie too



'Cause you could be mine

But you're way out of line

With your bitch slap rappin'

And your cocaine tongue

You get nuthin' done

I said you could be mine



Now holidays come and then they go

It's nothin' new today

Collect another memory

When I come home late at night

Don't ask me where I've been

Just count your stars

I'm home again



'Cause you could be mine

But you're way out of line

With your bitch slap rappin'

And your cocaine tongue

You get nuthin' done

I said you could be mine



You've gone sketchin' too many times

Why don't ya give it a rest

Why

Must you find

Another reason to cry



While you're breakin' down my back n' I been rackin' out my brain

It don't matter how we make it

'Cause it always ends the same

You can push it for more mileage

But your flaps r' wearin' thin

And I could sleep on it 'til mornin'

But this nightmare never ends

Don't forget to call my lawyers

With ridiculous demands

An you can take the pity so far

But it's more than I can stand

'Cause this couchtrip's gettin' older

Tell me how long has it been

'Cause 5 years is forever

An you haven't grown up yet



You could be mine

But you're way out of line

With your bitch slap rappin'

And your cocaine tongue

You get nuthin' done

I said you could be mine

You should be

You could be mine



Yeah!

Since I don't have you

Since I don't have you
And I don't have hopes and dreams

I, I, I don't have anything

Since I don't have you



And I don't have fond desires

And I don't have happy hours

I don't have anything

Since I don't have you



Happiness and I guess

I never will again

When you walked out on me

In walked ol' misery

And she's been here since then



[spoken] Yeah, we're fucked!



I don't have love to share

And I don't have one who cares

I don't have anything

Since I don't have you



You, you, you, oh, oh!

You, you, you, oh, oh!

You, you, you, oh, oh!

You, you, you, oh, oh!

You, you, you, oh yeah!
