Then one day you wake up to,
A thousand witnesses at your doorstep,
Saying, she�s dead, she�s gone, she left you here alone,
We�re dividing all the countries,
All the races,
The queens and leeches from the drones,
We�re sending you to die out on the bloody battlefields,
We�re reminding you that this is all that matters,
Follow orders, join us here,
Pretend that you�re immaculate and immune,
Pretend you�re sinless, pretend we're in it together.
So blame your God,
And blame your peers,
That pretty girl who doesn�t know that you exist,
The paperboy who says it�s going to rain,
The tailor never said you�d be fit for your career,
The sailor never pretended,
Though starving and distended,
That the world was ever sane.
When you�ve given up your bones and marrow,
Your blood and veins and ventricles,
To the nurse�s bloody sutures,
The surgeon�s promise that it would some day be all right,
No, he never said you would survive,
Never said you�d make it out alive,
Without putting up a fight.
When you�re stranded in a foreign land,
With a car you can�t jump-start,
Hey, Baby, Baby, Baby,
It�s all your fault.
