Youth

I remember the first night I came here

I remember the cold outside

I remember the smiling faces

I remember the nursery rhymes

This is what you get boy

This is what you get

Better learn how to run boy

Better learn how to run and now in a hole

I remeber a big white bedroom

With a barbed wire angel asleep

I remember a common foot soldier

Wallpaper made of dreams

I saw a pale imitation

Of whatever was meant to be

I saw a vague silhuette

Something that was to be me in a hole

I remember a Babylon burning boy

I remember a black tongue talking

I remember a dirty smell

I remember silent Sundays

I remember the fear I felt

That's why I learned how to smile boy

That's why I learned how to smile

That's why I learned how to smile boy

That's why I learned how to smile

I remember the meat train coming

I saw the chain gangs pass

I remember winners and losers

All wear the same masque

Hole

I remember a Babylon burning boy

I remember a Babylon burning boy

Run run run run you better

Run run cause the bullets hard

Run run you better run boy

Cause the bullet will hit you hard

Run run cause the future is coming

Run run cause the future is here

Run run cause the future is coming

Run run cause the future is here in a hole

I remember a Babylon burning in hell

I remember a Babylon burning in hell

Don't send me no photos of it

Don't send me no letters no

There's really no need to remind me

There's really no need at all

Cause nobody knows any answers

No nobody knows any thoughts

Everybody is good and evil

Everybody is good and bad in a hole

I remember a Babylon burning boy

I remember a Babylon burning boy

I remember a Babylon burning boy

I remember a Babylon burning boy

I remember it as a black mark

I remember it clear as mud

I remember the questions I had

And things I never understood
