we saw the fire that fell from the sky
and wondered what it was really all about
they sat passively watching all the bombs that dropped
and everywhere folks turned their gaze up on high
while feeding off the fear, all the little pieces, devoured from everyone
failed generals smoothed out all of the wrinkles, while singing 'this land was made for you and me'
their words cast a shadow on us all, blocking out the view
of all the folks they got on satellite
pressing buttons that dropped all of heaven onto them
smoothing out the wrinkles
dumbing it all down
while our voices rolled in their graves
while singing 'this land was made for you and me'
