There is birth......
There is death......
In between, there is nothing left
A bloody blade
A ticker-tape parade
A beard to shave
A job to slave
A kid to misbehave
A memory to fade
And then the darkness surrounds you
You realize you can't be saved
You've thrown your life away
There's no better day
Just barrocades
Dark alleyways
No safety from the Eagle's claw
No recourse to the law
No logical explanation for
Centuries of mindless war
And what do we have to show for
Cable TV and metaphors
Menapause
Alamoney Clause
Santa Claus
Dental Floss
And at what cost
Then you realize, maybe you shoulda died.....
In that foreign field
