Fix Bayonets! Lyrics

Fix Bayonets! Lyrics

I stopped to start and think about
The fire burning on the faces of the stars
Illuminating disassembled coping mechanisms

Catalogues of broken dispositions lying
Heavy and substantial, piling up on the decrepit
Woolen carpet

It’s alright, we can celebrate the evaporating
Homo sapien race that’s racing to erase its brief
And glorious existence
Lead with blind enthusiasm soaked in sweat, and
Smiling with insanity and broken cigarettes
Fix bayonets!

We’re dissolving in the gutter with the sour rain
And I’m lost in the middle of it all again

Patiently ignite the fuse
And sit and wait for everything to detonate
We’ll an*lyze the pain within the expiration date

Everybody wants to forget about
Every little thing that they hate, unsynthesized telepathy
A sympathetic symphony

Put another foot in another shoe
Please send assistance
As I wander through the black
Without appropriate schematics

We certainly appreciate the call
To all Civilian cadets
Chalk up your hands and hoist the flag
Fix Bayonets!

We’re dissolving in the gutter with the sour rain
And I’m lost in the middle of it all again
It was all over before it ever began
It was all over before it ever began
It was all over before it ever began
It was (Weighing us down)
All (Screeching to a halt)
Over (and done with out through the exit wound)
Before (It was too little)
It all (it was too late)
Began (We were all on board to fall apart)
