Break Day
The slogans turned to secretsThe symbols turned to stainsThe face of an 'enemy'Was imprinted on our brainsMade us spectres at the shuttersFaces covered Taking aimFaking blameBreak day The breaks failedWe all broke down togetherDrains were painted scarletScars were opened wideKids saluted in the basementsWhistled hymns and homicideAnd though we wanted to change thingsThe fact remains, we never triedBreak day The breaks failedLetras de cancionesBreaking down togetherBut you had a chanceYou had the brains, you had the moneyCould have bought an aeroplaneAnd skipped this hole for somewhere sunny You recognized the symptomsSmelt the hatred in the airBut you stayed... You betterPrayA nurse hid and shiveredas an army axed her doorLinking arms, drinking ordersUrinating on the floorSpilt the milk, split a hymenTook her wicked, made her sore... Told her it was break day
