Bullethole Symphony

Shots exchanged, no time for pain.
Consciousness, cannot regain.
War in flames, anarchy reigns.
All my life, this day, I've trained for.

Trained for war, know what's in store.
Indulge in pain, come back for more.
Straight to the core, knew this before.
Bullets for breakfast won't restore this hole.
This bullethole.

(Stand up) It's your time to shine.
(Rise up) It's your time to die.

Any moment, any breath could be my last.
Sidewindin' down the wrong path.
You want liberty?
You want to be set free?
Preach it to the bullethole symphony.
You want to be released?
You want to be relieved?
Take it up with the bullethole symphony.

Built on men, cannot pretend.
The bloodbath will begin again.
Can't defend thoughts that won't mend.
Gotta get into the murderer trend now.

Can't escape this darkened place.
Vanish to nothingness without a trace.
Another rat race? That's not the case.
Left my soul to rot in this hole.
This bullethole.

(Stand up) It's your time to shine.
(Rise up) It's your time to die.
(Stand up) Embrace adhesive lies.
(Rise up) Killing for a compromise.

Any moment, any breath could be my last.
Sidewindin' down the wrong path.
You want liberty?
You want to be set free?
Preach it to the bullethole symphony.
You want to be released?
You want to be relieved?
Take it up with the bullethole symphony.

Bodies are flying as death toll's are rising.
Insanity ensues as the soldier's are dying.
Just a broken note.
Just a shattered verse.
Slaughtered words are wrote.
Casualties perversed.
A melody that flows disharmonically
Lacking consistency.
Lacking cohesively fitting pieces.

The thunder of the bombs is the beat we live by.
Straining 'till our voices scrape the sky.
You want liberty?
You want to be set free?
Take it up with the bullethole symphony.
(Stand up, rise up).
