Howl (The Returning)

black eyed, hungry teeth, souls drawn tight through a needle. displaced, desolate, lives packed on borrowed trucks. padlocked doors, Wall Street roars, dead soldiers coming home. street corners, somebody's daughter, selling shadows wrapped in dreams. religious freaks, hangman's noose, dark glasses see only white! Christians and Muslims, russian roulette, hollow threats and doomsday lies. starving children, doors locked, faces turned away.! oil rigs pumping, dry humping, the earth screams, 'it's rape'! protesters marching, riot squads, take away your rights. prisons full, hard degrees, anger has a price! lovers meet, passion burns, scars left by point of change. wild eyed addicts, guns in hand, taking what they need. the righteous wake, it's too late, their enemies their brothers. mountains crumble, trees fall, rivers full of sludge. war cries, patriot lies, grease the grimy wheel. suffocate, dedicate, dead bodies to the ground. faceless rise, tired of lies, too damned hungry to care. common folk, dressed in black, lift unspoken prayers!
