An old man lying by the road, black as night
He's got his finger on the trigger, an easy target in sight
He's got no future, no family tree
He's got a three dollar bottle, and he drinks 'til he can't see
All night, all night
A young girl waiting on a line, eight A.M.
She's got a six month old burden, willpower's withering thin
An unwed mother, beaten by her trade
Each week her welfare reminds her of mistakes she never made
Oh, no
(Chorus)
Now, what has that to say about tomorrow?
What has that to show for today?
Noah thought to build an ark
Before the heavens washed it all away
Away, away, yeah
A baby crying through a dream, an afterthought
Mother is seething for pleasure, after the poison is bought
His eyes are tainted, staggered is his breath
Oh God he's addicted, addicted to death
Oh, no
(Chorus)
(Awesomely amazing solo)
(Chorus)
