Make me a Midas
 
is it just me or has this place REALLY slowed down? seems a month ago there were too many posts and now theres barely any. whatever.

Make me a Midas
--------------------------
You gave me a disease that brought the price of life
From a dollar in a dying man’s hand to the fare of the taxi
That brought me away from my countries strife
And to the sick thought that perhaps the

Reason I’ve survived this long is that everything I’ve known is wrong and that the
Treason we’ve lived by all along; was the very hope that made us strong

Do we live to be soldiers?
Are we soldiers so we might live
Just long enough to squander God’s gifts?

Do we live to be soldiers?
Can we call this living at all?
Children’s lives hanging on a single phone call?

Needs and Nooses
Needs and Nooses
Needs and Nooses
Needs and Nooses

What’s the point in make believe
If you’re the only one that can,
Extend your arms and with a cry
Defend with broken, battered hands

Though I’ve died I
Know I’ll be the
One to take this
Stand!

What’s the point of make believe
If we strangle our sons with needs and nooses
Gunfire roars, treaties whisper
Our livelihood becomes excuses

What’s the point in make believe
If we’re just here for the sake
Of the children who will always know that
Today was a mistake

Though I’d die before I’d fight a war, I’ve given blame worth fighting for.
Though I’d die before I’d fight a war, I’ll kill you and a million more
