The movie ran through me The glamour subdue me The tabloid untie me I'm empty please fill me Mister anchor assure me That Baghdad is burning Your voice it is so soothing That cunning mantra of killing I need you my witness To dress this up so bloodless To numb me and purge me now Of thoughts of blaming you Yes the car is our wheelchair My witness your coughing Oily silence mocks the legless Ones who travel now in coffins On the corner The jury's sleepless We found your weakness And it's right outside our door Now testify
Now testify It's right outside our door Now testify Yes testify It's right outside our door
With precision you feed me My witness I'm hungry Your temple it calms me So I can carry on My slaving sweating the skin right off my bones On a bed of fire I'm choking on the smoke that fills my home The wrecking ball rushing Witness your blushing The pipeline is gushing While here we lie in tombs While on the corner The jury's sleepless We found your weakness And it's right outside your door Now testify Yeah testify It's right outside our door Now testify Now testify It's right outside our door
Mass graves for the pump and the price is set Mass graves for the pump and the price is set Mass graves for the pump and the price is set Mass graves for the pump and the price is set

On a cold wet afternoon no room for love and emptiness by a freeway i confess i was lost in the pages of a book full of death reading how we'll die alone and if a god will lay to rest
anywhere we want to go in your house i long to be room by room patiently i'll wait for you there like a stone i'll wait for you there alone
and on my death bed i will prey to the gods and the angels like a pagan to anyone who will take me to heaven to a place i would recall i was there so long ago the sky was bruised the world was black and there you led me on
in your house i long to be room by room patiently i'll wait for you there liek a stone i'll wait for you there alone
in all i read till the day was gone and i sat in regret in all the things i've done for all that i've blessed and all that i've wronged in dreams till my death i will wonder on
in your house i long to be room by room patiently i'll wait for you there like a stone i'll wait for you there alone alone

Once upon a time I was on a mind to lay your burden down and leave you where you stood you believed i could you'd seen it done before i could read your thoughts and tell you what you saw and never say a word but now that is gone over with and done and never to return
i can tell you why people die alone i can tell you why the shadow on the sun
staring at the loss looking for the cause and never really sure nothing but a hole to live without a soul and nothing to be learned
i can tell you why people go insane i can show you how you could do the same i can tell you why the end will never come i can tell you on the shadow on the sun
shapes of every size move behind my eyes doors inside my head bolted from within every drop of flame lights a candle in memory of the one who lived inside my skin
i can tell you why people go insane i can show you how you could do the same i can tell you why the end will never come i can tell you on the shadow on the sun
shadow on the sun shadow on the sun shadow on the sun shadow on the sun shadow on the sun shadow on the sun shadow on the sun sun sun

Met a man locked away for things he hadn't done innocense on a ball and chain never feel the sun a grin on his face roses in his hands but when he smiled at me i could understand
if you're free you'll never see the walls if you're head is clear you'll never freefall if you're out right you never fear the wrong if you're head is high you never fear at all
there was a daughter of a man took his life too young she swore she'd never do those things then did just what he'd done and a boy whose gone insane voices in his head no one knows what they say now his mothers dead
if you're free you'll never see the walls if you're head is clear you'll never freefall if you're right you never fear the wrong if you're head is high you never fear at all
cuttin me down cuttin me down
there was a man who had a face it looked alot like me i saw him in the mirror and i fought him in the street then when he turned away i shot him in the head then i came to realize i had killed myself
if you're free you'll never see the walls if you're head is clear you'll never freefall if you're right you never fear the wrong if you're head is high you never fear
