The radio flickers in and out of static
Electricity in the air
Is breathed into our lungs
And static in our blood
Electricity in the air
News of war and hate
Static in our blood
Sullen eyes and empty hearts
War and abhorrence
Ravaged homes
Sullen eyes, empty hearts,
Soldiers that we used to know
Ravaged, empty homes,
Gun shots in the distance,
Soldiers that we once called friends
Become monsters as they march to the beat of our deaths
