The Eyes Of The Ranger - George McAnthony

Bring out your dead Bring me their heads An execution is at hand These are you false prophets selling you Armageddon These are the ones who are telling you that you are safe These are the ones who are taking your life away Day by day we cleanse the world of evil Yet, the blood is still on our hands Buried beneath the prayers of dead men And when there's nothing left There will be no one left to peel the guilt from our backs A flaw so fatal to our own survival Failure in the flesh Day by day we cleanse the world of evil Yet, the blood is still on our hands

A soldier's heart Reflecting back at me I keep seeing mutilated faces Even in my dreams Distorted images Flashing rapidly Psychotically abusing me Devouring my brain The eyes of the insane On a demented campaign Tortured spirits Will not let me rest These thoughts of mutilated faces Completely possessed Fragmented images Flashing rapidly Psychotically abusing me Worming through my head Shell shock, battle fatigue Overwhelming anxiety Flashbacks, panic attacks Death raising its ugly face at me Got to make it stop Can't take it anymore The dead keep haunting me They just keep coming back for more The eyes of the insane On a demented campaign Flashbacks, panic attacks Death raising his ugly face at me Got to make it stop Can't take it anymore Death's face keeps haunting me It just keeps coming back for more Got to make it stop Can't take it anymore Death's face keeps haunting me It just keeps coming back for more A soldier Of misfortune I owe my pain and suffering To this hell These demons Ripping through my soul Evil's relentless hostility Won't let me sleep Shell shock, battle fatigue Devastating insanity Flashbacks, panic attacks Death's riding, he's coming for me

It irks me when I get burned And I realize I don't get hurt And always, it seems I've lost my way When I feel you, it's not enough When I need you, you shun my touch I notice the season's ripe for change I'm weak I'm weak So with every new lesson learned I can keep you before it turns In the knowledge that things won't be the same Now I realize that you have won And there's nothing to be said or done And I notice the wind won't blow my way So run with the eyes of the devil And keep him in your dreams If you succumb to the lies of the rebel You'll cleanse yourself of me It kills me to watch this fade And I realize it's all a charade And every mistake I make's the same I beseech you to let me drown Will it please you to let me down? Now no-one can save me from the pain So run with the eyes of the devil And keep him in your dreams If you succumb to the lies of the rebel You'll cleanse yourself of me So run with the eyes of the devil And keep him in your dreams If you succumb to the lies of the rebel You'll cleanse yourself of me So run with the eyes of the devil And keep him in your dreams If you succumb to the lies of the rebel You'll cleanse yourself of me Jesus save me Jesus save me Jesus save me Jesus save me Jesus save me Jesus save me from me

Your voice is still so real i can hear its sound Echoing in my head calling my name so clear and loud I'll pop another beer you won't disagree Small talk about our teams sharing cigarettes in secrecy I, I can see you, through the eyes of my mind I thought we had more time, we'd grow old together We could always count on you, it's hard to say goodbye my brother I, I can see you, through the eyes of my mind
