Concussionbox - Mercury Head Lyrics

What was it you said late last night?
What was it you said in the bloody moonlight?
Something about a war over capital gains
Something about a posse - inflicts real pain

Something's wrong
Rage in Southeast
Something's wrong
War in Southeast

Soundbites of death pop out of the tube
Join the NRA
It won't happen to you
Humpty Dumpty is asleep on his throne
While over the fence
People hide in their homes

Something's wrong
War in Southeast
Something's wrong

The city bleeds
Neon lights flicker
The shadows take flight
As the smoke is getting thicker
Blood-stained pavement
Where motherless kids play
A symphony of chaos
Trumpets in our decay

Something's wrong
War in Southeast
Something's wrong

Gunfire echoes on the city streets
Politicians hide under fine silk sheets
Like Angie, we have no money in our coats
And a red right hand grabs us by the throat
But on the way down
Can I count on your vote?

Something's wrong
Something's wrong

Fear breeds hate in domestic storms
Violence is growing in a killing zone
What was it you said
As green turns to red
What was it you said
Mercury head

Something's wrong
Something's wrong
Something's wrong (war in Southeast)
Something's wrong
Rage in Southeast
Rage in Southeast
Rage in Southeast
Rage in Southeast
Rage in Southeast
Rage in Southeast
Rage in Southeast

The other side just crossed the moat
No more room left in the sinking boat
