Silent War

I am running out of fingers
I am running out of toes
On which to count the main offenders
I've my dandy little foes
Future's gone ballistic
'Cause the past lost all control
I'm calling back the order
I'm stealing back the soul

Do you like me when sedated?
All bound up and medicated
To receive is overrated, yeah
(We can make a deal tonight)
Shame and hate have copulated
Love should be reciprocated
Now let's see if you can take it, yeah
(We can make a deal tonight)

The papers never lie, the sweetest alibi
You signed with your own hand, the men they could not hang
This is the silent war, there won't be any more
And though the wall has gone, we're still afraid as one

Yeah you're running out of rations
While you're serving up the law
With which you're sending out of fashion
As you tear it with your claw
With all this information
Tell me, what you gonna do?
Can you tame the nation?
Can you lick what's in the news?

Do you like me when sedated?
All bound up and medicated
To receive is overrated, yeah
(We can make a deal tonight)
Shame and hate have copulated
Love should be reciprocated
Now let's see if you can take it, yeah
(We can make a deal tonight)

The papers never lie, the sweetest alibi
You signed with your own hand, the men they could not hang
This is the silent war, there won't be any more
And though the wall has gone, we're still afraid as one

The papers never lie, the sweetest alibi
You signed with your own hand, the men they could not hang
