Tears For The Sheep |
|
[Verse 1: Slug] |
|
A city of fools |
|
I wanna bash whoever's responsible for this incomprehensible lack of passion |
|
The sucker's been seduced down to the stick |
|
And the peasants fill their bellies with the poisons you omit |
|
I've come to seperate the heads and shoulders |
|
Of these tracin' paper soldiers |
|
That have been designated to take it over |
|
I'ma roll a couple of boulders off the cliff |
|
On the road below (look out below) |
|
'Cause I don't know what I'ma hit (yo) |
|
I live by the word until I die by your sword |
|
Even when I'm dead my head will live inside your RCA cords |
|
I wait for the right time, but it resembled now-a-days |
|
Descended on the Earth to put an end to all your holidays |
|
The assassin covered in plain clothes |
|
Smothered the sunlight and set flame to your rainbows |
|
And then came the storm (and then came the storm) |
|
Bewildered those that didn't contemplate |
|
Fake disguised as the norm (as the norm) |
|
And when the smoke evaporated and the damage was assessed |
|
The casualities were counted as they looked upon the mess |
|
As they focused they eyes on the horizon, who'da guessed? |
|
All that stood atop the hill was number seven silhouette |
|
[Chorus: Slug] |
|
(And with this) head splitting tears, cement breaking |
|
weeping for these people walking in their sleep |
|
(these people walking in their sleep) |
|
My talk is not as cheap |
|
And my thoughts are not as deep |
|
As the day I woke up to discover I lost my sheep |
|
head splitting tears, cement breaking |
|
Leaping for these people walking in their sleep |
|
(these people walking in their sleep) |
|
My talk is not as cheap |
|
And my thoughts are not as deep |
|
As the day I woke up to discover I lost my sheep |
|
[Verse 2: Slug] |
|
They say a picture's worth a thousand words |
|
Well I beg a thousand pardons for each word I've used for personal gains |
|
But the letters that float through my head, demote my sentences |
|
Could never be contained by your simple picture frames |
|
For every intoxicated moment, I hate life |
|
I strive to balance my aura by dancing with the light |
|
And sometimes it's difficult to stay quiet |
|
I fight it, each time I find myself walking across your eyelids |
|
Wishin' the malnutrition, the imagination of yours |
|
Could see the truth you breathe through each one of your pores |
|
And now the days are drastic, the nights last forever |
|
Wanna tear this motherfucker up and put it back together |
|
I'd like to ask the cats that act like they my peers |
|
If you spent the energy I've spit, tryin' to count the tears |
|
One of these days you're gonna climb the tallest building of all |
|
Give a warning to those below and let the tears fall |
|
[Chorus: Slug] |
|
(And with the) all the head splitting tears, cement breaking |
|
weeping for these people walking in their sleep |
|
(these people walking in their sleep) |
|
My talk is not as cheap |
|
And my thoughts are not as deep |
|
As the day I woke up to discover I lost my sheep |
|
head splitting tears, cement breaking |
|
Leaping for these people walking in their sleep |
|
(these people walking in their sleep) |
|
My talk is not as cheap |
|
And my thoughts are not as deep |
|
As the day I woke up to discover I lost my sheep |
|
[Brief Singing: Some Female] (2X) |
|
Nobodies here 'cept my mirror on the wall |
|
[Verse 3: Slug] |
|
The damage...overseen by anyone that comprehends |
|
The anguish...felt only by the ones that invest |
|
The language...was primitive, the listener complex |
|
And everybody was trying to define success |
|
All the self-proclaimed prophets dressed up to look like poets |
|
Pretendin' to be martyrs that they're not |
|
You can learn all their names |
|
And engrave them on your brains |
|
Memories so you can spout them off the top (spout them off the top) |
|
Yo kill 'em all, and let God give 'em handcuffs |
|
The flood has begun, and no one has been paired up |
|
So I'ma take a second to beckon the downfall |
|
of your so called civilized nation |
|
(Yo yo yo yo yo) stop the sound now! |
|
(Cough) |
