Pray
Another light goes out today
Another monster stalks his prey
And all we ever do is pray
But praying doesn't help us anymore
I thought I was too young to die
But now I've seen the world with my two eyes and it's not
All that you promised it would be
A land of peace and opportunity
Bulletholes in Lady Liberty
When you hear him coming down the hall
Take cover, make your final call
If I leave my bloodstains on the classroom wall
Is that the way that you'll remember me
There's bulletholes in Lady Liberty
And if this is war
There'll be no victors
Just doctors and victims till we're done
And if this is war
I'm a defector, a conscientious objector
I'll just run
While nothing gets done
And you'll pray
And we'll wait
While nothing gets done
And you'll pray
We've all been down this road before
Cut the lights and barricade the door
Just give it time, it isn't time
Just ignore it
And that's the way that history repeats
More bulletholes in Lady Liberty
And if this is war
There'll be no victors
Just doctors and victims till we're done
And if this is war
I'm a defector, a conscientious objector
I'll just run
While nothing gets done
And you'll pray
And we'll wait
While nothing gets done
And you'll pray
And we'll fall one by one
By one by one by one by one
By one by one by one by one
By one by one by one by one
By one by one by one by one
And you'll pray
And you'll pray
I thought I was too young to die
I thought I was too young to die
Another monster stalks his prey
And all we ever do is pray
But praying doesn't help us anymore
I thought I was too young to die
But now I've seen the world with my two eyes and it's not
All that you promised it would be
A land of peace and opportunity
Bulletholes in Lady Liberty
When you hear him coming down the hall
Take cover, make your final call
If I leave my bloodstains on the classroom wall
Is that the way that you'll remember me
There's bulletholes in Lady Liberty
And if this is war
There'll be no victors
Just doctors and victims till we're done
And if this is war
I'm a defector, a conscientious objector
I'll just run
While nothing gets done
And you'll pray
And we'll wait
While nothing gets done
And you'll pray
We've all been down this road before
Cut the lights and barricade the door
Just give it time, it isn't time
Just ignore it
And that's the way that history repeats
More bulletholes in Lady Liberty
And if this is war
There'll be no victors
Just doctors and victims till we're done
And if this is war
I'm a defector, a conscientious objector
I'll just run
While nothing gets done
And you'll pray
And we'll wait
While nothing gets done
And you'll pray
And we'll fall one by one
By one by one by one by one
By one by one by one by one
By one by one by one by one
By one by one by one by one
And you'll pray
And you'll pray
I thought I was too young to die
I thought I was too young to die
