All these inanimate places feel like they're changingThe kids all lined up on the wall like they're ready to die These arms ascending, it's like they just rearranged them We were caged up like animals, questioned and ready to cry'Cause I was just 13 when I got my first taste of dangerI was standing by the church, I had a bottle and a pen in my handOh I said "father, I'm sorry, I just don't know what to do with this angerThis behavior is correctable, I know this wasn't part of your plan." But little fucks like us, we were always receiving instructionAnd You could burn our clothes, you could wash out the ink and the dye But you can't look me in the eye and say you don't feel like a little destruction And the kids are lined up on the wall and they're ready to die And the kids are lined up on the wall and they're ready to dieAll these days just seem like they're getting longerThe view from our room is a gloomy and overcast greyThe weakness we left behind seems to be getting strongerI swear there's something in the air, and I don't know what anyone could say'Cause I saw the news this morning, there was another Boy by the side of the road, he had a gun in his handI thought "Well what could you say to make it ever make sense to his mother? 'Oh ma'am, he was excitable, we were just trying to make him a man'"SongtexteBut the day will come when it falls like a cheap house of plasticAnd the cards that we dealt, will be tossed like a storm in the sky'Cause you can only lie for so long before you get something drastic And the kids are lined up on the wall and they're ready to die And the kids are lined up on the wall and they're ready to die Aus Songtexte Mania
