Black Boots

I’ve heard the rumors around the town

They say The Government is coming now

For those left behind long ago

I’ve seen this old movie before

So many times that I ignore

But things are about to run out of control

Screaming children, loud gunfire, runaway

Is there anywhere to hide?

Low-flying choppers – TV staff in – Battle tanks

Are part of our lives in here

Black Boots march, through the dust, open Fire

Taking no prisoners

Proud of being, the State’s reaper, wearing black

And skull to protect and serve, but whom?

Now they’re coming up

Corpses hit the ground

There comes Black Boots

Hunting people down

Now there’s no escape

Bloodshed is now

There comes Black Boots

Hunting people down

Outlaws running through the hill

No time to pray for their last will

Hope for the situation to change

They went out of camera’s sight

Black Boots waiting at the other side

All turns into a shooting range

Shotgun shells, assault rifles, bulletproofing

Willing to seek and kill

Feel like living – With a target, on my back

Lay down to escape from stray bullets

Black Boots march, through the dust, open Fire

Taking no prisoners

Proud of being, the State’s reaper, wearing black

And skull to protect and serve, but whom?

Now they’re coming up

Corpses hit the ground

There comes Black Boots

Hunting people down

Now there’s no escape

Bloodshed is now

There comes Black Boots

Hunting people down
