FLOGGING MOLLY LYRICS

"Requiem For A Dying Song"

There's a government whip cracked across your back
Where the order of the day is don't listen, attack
See the blood run down in your bushwhacked town
Revolution is the gimmick of a jokerless clown
Another volley's just the ammo for the taxman's gun

Talk, don't talk if you've nothing to say
Walk, don't walk if your feet don't know the way

In requiem for a dying song
Hear the shimmy and the shake from a futile war
With the sun that lights the day
Brings the darkness and the prize of another great shame

But with you my love, with you my love
with you I will return
In requiem for a dying song

Grab the barrel by the face shoot the order, release
Shove the bullet in your pocket turn away and retreat
See the terror in the eye of a bloodshot child
With only rubble in his belly and the promise of lies
Operation Liberation, tell me you can decide

Talk, don't talk if you've nothing to say
Walk, don't walk if your feet don't know the way

In requiem for a dying song
Hear the shimmy and the shake from a futile war
With the sun that lights the day
Brings the darkness and the prize of another great shame

But with you my love, with you my love
with you I will return
In requiem for a dying song

Agony on every corner of every street
Ignite their loss of self with their bitterness, explode
Explode

There's a government whip cracked across your back
Where the order of the day is don't listen, attack

Talk, don't talk if you've nothing to say
Walk, don't walk if your feet don't know the way

In requiem for a dying song
Hear the shimmy and the shake from a futile war
With the sun that lights the day
Brings the darkness and the prize of another great shame

But with you my love, with you my love
with you I will return
In requiem for a dying song
With you my love
with you I will return
In requiem for a dying song
