lyrics

The beams that have buckled, now cracklin’ and moanin’
From the weight of our soldiers still finding a home in
The deserts of deathlike imposing and chosen
By those with the dollars of knowing
-
The fires are a burning, my stomach is churning
From thoughts of the learning I did in my yearning
For sense in the names that they tag with a number
So those with the black suits are earning

Jesus when will it end?

Now baby she’s trying to cope with the dying
Of news reports flying American crimes as
The president’s buying the whole damn refinery
What they do will not be called murder
-
As poverty strickens like a drug with no sickness
The government sanctions to spy on those witness
To assure that their words wont affect times of fitness
And who shall be deemed as the able

Jesus when will it end?

Now kids carry guns as they shoot out the sun
So to blacken their ties to the holiest one
While those who would question just what has been done
Will be placed in the walls and kept silent
-
Shouts from the bow have been crushed by the plow
Of the rivers of empires that have drowned to the brow
As a generation turns a blind eye to the now
Not even a question of reason

Jesus when will it end?

How can our leaders be blasting through speakers
Converting the restless to thoughtless believers
In a land where our freedom’s just the shit that they feed us
When will we stand up and meet them
-
So ill ask you again with the words from a pen
Cos im only a singer who’s listening in
Does it really feel good to allow to begin
The lives of our influenced children

Jesus when will it end?
Jesus when will it end?
