lyrics

You took a bullet straight
through the chest plate.
Jacket did nothing to help.

Hit for a cause you only half
believed in,
Falling through the beehive,
jumping out of planes.

They sent you home,
innoculate, bereaved sin,
Let loose with secrets that
were too big to keep,

So you made a beeline
for New York City,
found out it's a hard place
to sleep.

They let you out just in time
to spew out your stomach,
your brother left dead in the field.

Your wife let the wheel go,
while she was driving,
marines taught you not to feel real.

When the cancer came up it was boiling oil,
too late for you to get
help you said but I don't believe you.

Why risk the chemo if
you always said it was
better to go out with a bang
a bang
a bang!

They let you out just in time
to spew out your stomach,
your brother left dead in the field.

Your wife let the wheel go,
while she was driving,
marines taught you not to feel real
to feel that
Loneliness a bullet that
never leaves a clean hole,
but you taught them how to beg.

Remembering the alleys,
so drunk in Brooklyn!
We stumbled from the beer hall to the street,

and everyone we meet gets the
sweetest of greetings,
everuone we meet tastes defeat.

We smoke until our lungs collapse,
until you give out,
eyes like two lumps in old milk.

And I will cough with you but I'll wake up in the morning
to hear that you'd passed in the night,
Dreaming about the fight.

They let you out just in time
to spew out your stomach,
your brother left dead in the field.

Your wife let the wheel go,
because you were lyingg,
marines taught you not to feel
not to feel
not to feel...
