The Holy Ones - Our Last Enemy

Where I grew up it was different There was no violence or like other towns But when I came home from school that night I saw the cops were on the run There were kids on the wall, reaching up to the sky Like a culture shock of joy It sent me into a strong fascination And what's been lost is back 'Cause we were the only ones Darling and me, this time it's going down You know where I belong And you know it's time that we let go Been drifting so far away from home November came back and all was gone You know where I belong, my darling This time it's going down When December came, I was older And snow was finally on the ground Soldiers lining up, cameras feeding the world With pictures that would mark my mind I heard his woman scream as she was begging for trust Then turning ghost like behind the court A shotgun blast, as New Years passed Oppression was on the run 'Cause we were the only ones Darling and me, this time they're going down You know where I belong You know it's time that we let go Been drifting so far away from home November came back and all was gone You know where I belong, my darling This time they're going down, they're going down You know where I belong You know it's time that we let go Been drifting so far away from home November came back and now it's gone You know where I belong, my darling It's going down

The Wild Ones There's a song playing on the radio Sky high in the airwaves On the morning show And there's a lifeline slipping As the record plays And as I open the blinds in my mind I'm believing that you could stay And oh if you stay I'll chase the rainblown fields away We'll shine like the morning and sin in the sun Oh if you stay We'll be the wild ones, Running with the dogs today There's a song playing through another wall All we see and believe Is the D.J. and debts dissolve And it's a shame the plane is leaving On this sunny day Cos on you my tattoo will be bleeding And the name will stain But oh if you stay We'll ride from disguised suburban graves We'll go from the bungalows Where the debts still grow every day And oh if you stay I'll chase the rainblown fears away We'll shine like the morning And sin in the sun oh if you stay We'll be the wild ones Running with the dogs today We'll be the wild ones Running with the dogs today Running with the dogs today

I'm climbing through the noise above me I'm reaching for a hand to feed I can't control the world below me Possessed by all the blood we need The voices in the air surrounding Are telling me what I believe I can't control the world below my feet I'll learn to take a breath and be A slave to the war A slave to a means Of breathing 'cause I know what's killing me I know I'm alive, I know I can see But tell me why I can't learn to believe in my enemy I'm swimming through the void of meaning The emptiness inside of me It's burning like a fire igniting This mess of me I hate to see I'm a slave to the war A slave to a means Of breathing 'cause I know what's killing me I know I'm alive, I know I can see But tell me why I can't learn to believe in my enemy I feel like a ghost left alone 'Cause what I wanted the most took my soul I'm selling all I know for glory While breaking every part of me I'm bound by my determination A soul for sale is all I'll be I'm a slave to the war A slave to a means Of breathing 'cause I know what's killing me I know I'm alive, I know I can see But tell me why I can't learn to believe in my enemy I feel like a ghost left alone 'Cause what I wanted the most took my soul I know I'm alive, I know I can see But tell me why I can't learn to believe in my enemy
