Two Fuses
No more coiling in the dust of violence
We take while being taken by the price of silence
Our safety from fulfillment, the razor's touch
Calling your number but the lines are cut
Sabotage at the start of the race
For every smile on every dirty face
Two worlds at war
Two fuses for the buying
Two worlds at war
Our consciousness is dying
Two worlds at war
You're the first and last to flash in my mind
Two worlds at war
I won't leave you behind
I won't leave you behind my friend
So tear up the script and write a new end
Our working hands we cannot afford
Pax Americana from the killing floor
Did you bury your vision and join the roll call?
From the shopping mall in the toxic sprawl
Where they keep young hearts in isolation
I'll leave in the commercial
I don't care what I've missed
And these wire taps and satellite maps
Can't touch my right to exist
So "not in my name"
But they buy us the same
Will they shut down our hearts in the pouring rain?
Don't tell us to die for the brand names of our dying days
Two worlds at war
Two fuses for the buying
Two worlds at war
Our consciousness is dying
Two worlds at war
You're the first and last to flash in my mind
Two worlds at war
I won't leave you behind
Sing out from around the world tonight
From around the world tonight
So the struggle remains, do we break from the line and run?
Captive and tense in the twilight, cage the setting sun
Face to face no more, waiting to hear their call
For the bombs, the mines, the bullets and fists
Here's my name now for the blacklist
I'll leave in the commercial
I don't care what I've missed
And these wire taps and satellite maps
Can't touch my right to exist
So "not in my name"
But they buy us the same
Will they shut down our hearts in the pouring rain?
Don't tell us to die for the brand names of our dying days
We take while being taken by the price of silence
Our safety from fulfillment, the razor's touch
Calling your number but the lines are cut
Sabotage at the start of the race
For every smile on every dirty face
Two worlds at war
Two fuses for the buying
Two worlds at war
Our consciousness is dying
Two worlds at war
You're the first and last to flash in my mind
Two worlds at war
I won't leave you behind
I won't leave you behind my friend
So tear up the script and write a new end
Our working hands we cannot afford
Pax Americana from the killing floor
Did you bury your vision and join the roll call?
From the shopping mall in the toxic sprawl
Where they keep young hearts in isolation
I'll leave in the commercial
I don't care what I've missed
And these wire taps and satellite maps
Can't touch my right to exist
So "not in my name"
But they buy us the same
Will they shut down our hearts in the pouring rain?
Don't tell us to die for the brand names of our dying days
Two worlds at war
Two fuses for the buying
Two worlds at war
Our consciousness is dying
Two worlds at war
You're the first and last to flash in my mind
Two worlds at war
I won't leave you behind
Sing out from around the world tonight
From around the world tonight
So the struggle remains, do we break from the line and run?
Captive and tense in the twilight, cage the setting sun
Face to face no more, waiting to hear their call
For the bombs, the mines, the bullets and fists
Here's my name now for the blacklist
I'll leave in the commercial
I don't care what I've missed
And these wire taps and satellite maps
Can't touch my right to exist
So "not in my name"
But they buy us the same
Will they shut down our hearts in the pouring rain?
Don't tell us to die for the brand names of our dying days
