They're jumping from buildings And fall to the streets It's just an abstraction Can't you see? Are you desensitized An American sheep They're praying in church While the money burns at their feet When warheads fly Through the sky Children are starving While days turn to weeks There's kids out there With monkeys on their backs When playing with fire Do you just sit back And relax Do you? ABSTRACT - REACT ABSTRACT REACTION ABSTRACT REACTION ABSTRACT ABSTRACT REACTION ABSTRACT REACTION ABSTRACT REACTION When warheads fly Through the sky When people are fighting En Masse in your street When it's all gone to far And there's no turning back When playing with fire Do you just sit back And relax Do you?

Have you ever been afraid of the world And what it can do to you Looking out through hardened eyes At a world that hates you So you realize You're starting to hate it too The stress is so thick You're ready to snap At least you're still sane enough To see it coming And you say to yourself Somebody please help me Crawl out from under the volcano It feels like my heart is dying inside If you could just hold it in your hands You would see How it's leaving me As the loneliness sets in I desperately cling to anyone's touch It seems like it keeps on raining When the sun's on full All alone it's desperation I hope my friends can forgive me I'm desperately hoping for someone To pull me out from under the volcano Under the volcano

They say it's the music Music in the rain All these kids are dying Take their own lives Take their own lives Take their own lives Cause all the little boys and girls Won't come out to play And everyone's alone in the world 'Cause they won't come out to play God, Death & Audiotape God, Death & Audiotape God, Death & Audiotape Just take a trip down Matamoros Way There's a friendly place where you can stay Or maybe to Jonestown for a friendly little drink What do you think? What do you think? Cause all the little boys and girls Won't come out to play And everyone's alone in the world 'Cause they won't come out to play God, Death & Audiotape God, Death & Audiotape God, Death & Audiotape

Swarm 04:52
Like a horde of maddened bees Swarm like locusts spreading disease An infectious sea Swarming over you Swarming over me Life Suffering Death A swarm so thick you can't breathe SWARM SWARM SWARM SWARM The moon The skies over foreign land With our guns in hand Ain't life grand? Like a horde of maddened bees Swarm like locusts spreading disease An infectious sea Swarming over you Swarming over me Life Suffering Death A swarm so thick you can't breathe SWARM SWARM SWARM SWARM
