death may come invisible,
|
or in the holy wall of fire.
|
in the breath between the markers,
|
on some black I-80 mile.
|
from the madness of the government,
|
to the vengeance of the sea.
|
well everything is eclipsed
|
by the shape of destiny.
|
|
so love me now,
|
hell is coming.
|
you kiss my mouth,
|
hell is here.
|
|
little soldier, little insect,
|
you know war it has no heart,
|
it will kill ye in the sunshine,
|
or happily in the the dark.
|
|
where kindness is a card game,
|
or a bent up cigarette.
|
in the trenches, in the hard rain,
|
with a bullet and a bet.
|
|
he says help me out,
|
hell is coming.
|
but could you do it now?
|
hell is here.
|
|
see the sterile soil, poisoned sky, yellow water,
|
the final scraps of light bringing new tears.
|
|
well wake, baby, wake.
|
but leave that blanket around you,
|
there's nowhere else safe.
|
i'm leaving this place,
|
but there's nothing i'm planning to take;
|
just you, just you, just you, just you.
|
