so save a world
so save a life
love your husband
and kiss your wife
breath in clean air
so free from strife
the needle pricks
as does the knife

and i explode
the pieces small
eternal black
little blue ball
changing landscape
new rise and fall
tis all for one
or some for all

and then we toast
to victories
to worlds in peace
and calmer seas
the wind goes cold
between the trees
god bless the birds
but fuck the bees

in bed we sleep
and make up nice
we buy our rings
at such a price
heroes we make
we sacrifice
we yell “hear hear!”
we say it twice

our armies big
they march and pound
smoke up the air
and shake the ground
we throw our spear
let loose the hound
in darkest black
our screams resound

i look at you
you look at me
what have we done
where will we be
a future stark
we will not see
we’ll make it work
or we’ll be free!
