It's a brushfire spreading feeding as it moves It's a disappearing glacier; it's an airborne flu It's your disbelieving eyes logging concrete miles It's your yawning conscience and your voyeur smile It's an occupied country foaming at the mouth It's a smoking gun no mushroom cloud It's a military mother with a boy in hell It's a flag draped casket and oil well It's an argentine schoolgirl gagged and bound It's a torture camp and its a long way down It's the constant brace and shock of now It's the whole damn world turned inside out alright And it's a march to extinction with your god in step Puts his name in your mouth puts his cross on your neck It's a farm boy sprinting over desert dirt he's panting the 'our father' in sticcado spurts. It's his automatic rifle and it tells no lies sets its truth in your stomach its no alibi But the trouble lies on the other side. With an equal truth prepping for his holy night. Sees the crescent and the star blink in the virgin sky. And hears the call of milk and honey from the afterlife And as he eases to the checkpoint he is calm and sure its collateral damage. It's the cost of war. Its another bag of bones for the gods to sort. Its just another bag of bones for the gods to sort. And there's a species disappearing. All the birds fly south It's a January heat wave in a pulsing crowd It's an African militia kids with sub machines It's a conflict diamond on your bride-to-be It's the mission of identity go get what's yours Til there's nothing left over to go get no more And it's not what we're owed but its what we've earned And its closer than we realize and its time now to burn, it's time now to burn, all this time now to burn
