News From The Front

Blood is a river,

Flowing darkly amidst the tangled roots of the tall shining city

Crazy flowing mantide migrations

Engorge the big ventricle of heartbroken america

So many heaven hoping, hopeful groping breathers

All tap together quietly and desperately in unison

Hey, hey, hey, is anybody listening?



News from the front

News from the front

We're living in troubled times

So many fighting for their lives

Why do the troops despise the news from the front?



Ignorance is the root of fear

Fear is the kindling of anger

War is the bringer of shame

But never has the burden lain so heavily upon the victim

Rage and desolation

Pain and loneliness

Isn't it all alarmingly familiar?

Hey, hey, hey, silence is a killer.



News from the front

News from the front

Yeah these are troubled times

How many more will have to die

Before the governors can't deny the news from the front?



Break down the barriers, ally the carriers,

What is your motivation? take a good look in the mirror



News from the front

News from the front

So many are fighting for their lives

How many more will have to die?

Why does the government decry the news from the front?
