lyrics

You hide behind fences
You hide behind shame
You commit to all war like it's some kind of game
and you pass away slowly but you leave with a price
your sons and their daughters, they'll live with their lives
and I've seen that sad look inside of hundreds of eyes
You're passing forever, and fading forever,
and you won't stop forever, now look at our streets
They're filled up with liars with all of their guns and their toys
and all of the pity soaked women who cry in the gutters
to afraid to climb ladders or bury their shame
But I dont want to fuss or fight no more

Our tongues are all tied up to the steps of our homes
and our hands are all tied back to the small kitchen tables
where we talked ourselves in circles until our fingers bled
smoking for hours and never getting anywhere
outside of these holes deep in our lungs
like pictures of war tucked under our sheets with our caddilac cars
and all the jokes that come with them from the mouths of the graveyards
where our children are digging just to find out the answers
They're pulling up bodies just to find out the answer
But I don't want to fuss or fight no more
No, I don't want to fuss or fight no more

You pick to the bone just to look at your face
and you rise to the surface where your family is waiting
they want to see you in peril
they want to see you in heat
Burning up slowly you scatter the ashes into the ashtrays
into the bars
into the places you never could relate to
We commit to our lovers without knowing their fathers, who follow their mothers like some kind of shadow...
Like some kind of shadow
But I don't want to fuss or fight no more
