Paint it black and white if you like,
|
The story's still the same.
|
A generation built on a lie, that
|
Every one of us is safe.
|
Paint it black and white if you like,
|
If it keeps you sane.
|
You know the world wont just stay right.
|
So tell me, who's to blame?
|
|
And I will catch you, but who might
|
Break the fall?
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Goddamn, I might be the son of sam.
|
The only child of a holy man.
|
I stand alone for all to see,
|
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me.
|
(Goddamn) Son of sam. [x2]
|
|
Burning buildings fall apart.
|
Send the best, and send their love.
|
Turn away. Goodbye, goodnight.
|
Go to sleep, now don't you cry.
|
Are you afraid your life means less?
|
Are you concearned you might be next?
|
Its much too soon for me to tell,
|
If you're in heaven or in hell.
|
|
And I will catch you, but who might
|
Break the fall?
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Goddamn, I might be the son of sam.
|
The only child of a holy man.
|
I stand alone for all to see,
|
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me.
|
(Goddamn) Son of sam. [x2]
|
(Goddamn)
|
|
Your ceiling falling piece by pieces,
|
Raining down like concrete.
|
Just surrender, and remember what
|
You've done to me.
|
Look now, over your shoulder.
|
No, its not over. Its just beginning.
|
And now light the fire on ending.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Goddamn, I might be the son of sam.
|
The only child of a holy man.
|
I stand alone for all to see,
|
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me -
|
|
Goddamn, I might be the son of sam.
|
The only child of a holy man.
|
I stand alone for all to see,
|
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me.
|
|
Son of sam. [x2]
|
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me.
|
Son of sam. [x2]
|
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me.
|
Son of sam. [x2]
|
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me.
|
Son of sam. [x2]
