The War I Survived

(앨범: The Xenon Codex - 1988)

Death comes like a grasshopper in the midst of all wars
Reason and logic, the generals cry "more"
Bodies in gullies, contortionate poses
Caught by the same time as the guns and roses

Take me back to the war I survived
I can't live no more, this is slaughterhouse five
Take me back to the war I survived
I can't live no more, this is slaughterhouse five

I fuse guns, bombs to the haloed Moon
Trust this landscape to the barren gloom
A bulletproof Bible can protect your heart
Who'll cover your eyes when you're falling apart?

Take me back to the war I survived
I can't live no more, this is slaughterhouse five
Take me back to the war I survived
I can't live no more, this is slaughterhouse five

Did you rise higher from the martyr's back?
Rob our freedom for unprovoked attack
Get in there and use them, the shadow time bomb
Armies create circles, sparks from the dawn

Take me back to the war I survived
I can't live no more, this is slaughterhouse five
Take me back to the war I survived
I can't live no more, this is slaughterhouse five

There's only bombs, nobody's left alive
Take me back to the war I survived
These were people like you and I
Take me back to the war I survived
