ASHES IN YOUR MOUTH

1. Verse People have round shoulders from fairing heavy loads
And as soldiers liberate them, laying mines along their roads
Sorrow paid for valor is too much too recall
Of the countless corpses piled up along the wailing wall

Melting down all metals, turning plows and shears to swords
To shun words from the Bible, do we need implements of war?
Chalklines and red puddles of those who have been slain
Destiny, that crooked schemer says the dead shall rise again!

Chorus (A) Where do we go from here
And should we really care?
The end is finally here
God have mercy!
Chorus (B) Now we've rewritten history
The one thing we found out
Sweet taste of vindication
It turns to ashes in your mouth
Chorus (A) Where do we go from here
And should we really care?
The end is finally here
God have mercy!
Bridge If you're fighting to live
It's O.K. to die!
The answer to your question is
Welcome to tomorrow

Chorus (A) Where do we go from here
God have mercy!
Chorus (A) Where do we go from here
And should we really care?
The end is finally here
God have mercy!
Chorus (A) Where do we go from here
And should we really care?
The end is finally here
God have mercy!
