the news got spread while we broke sunday bread, and spoke of wages of the week. the radio signal came in strong. some grew timid, some grew weak. instructed to stay inside it's safe. don't wander far from the central base. be ready and alert, let 'em never know that you're afraid! those that do not fear death can never truly die. they live in propaganda, whisper fireside. as a child i would collect their pamphlets, tell my parents i would join their ranks and be all i could be. folding pages of army rangers. special forces, training courses. it blows my mind, i was like eleven at the time. i've been programmed to love this violence, and all it brings. video games, and killing things, i’m against this war but i watch it on TV. i can’t explain that when I see a gun, i quickly ask if it’s loaded and point it at someone or something and imagine it dying. gasping for air, gasping for breath. i wanted them to invade so bad, we'll steal the guns from the mall and make our last stand. just like wolverines on movie screens, just out of reach. except we'd be fighting from the beach!
This entire album rips. I've had this on repeated play several times since it came out. I wish I had heard it a week earlier when they played in Boston. One of my fav albums in this genre period. slimes
