Bombs on Monday Morning

Bombs on Monday Morning [Intro] (static) Mayday... Mayday... Incoming... Bombs on Monday morning... Bombs on Monday morning... [Verse 1] We all see the world on fire All in the dirty game, all for a pretty penny Trading lives for luxuries We all gettin' burnt in the crossfire Head up high while the sirens screaming Shrapnel rains down, no worry or burden Life ain't perfect, I know, for certain I'm just going through my version Blood on the concrete, ash in the air Buildings collapse, everyone snaps and shares Lost everything I love in the blast Windows shattering outward The street turning black Only smoke remains, remains [Pre-Chorus] Bombs keep fallin' Sky keeps burnin' Smoke fills the air The ground still shakes Fires keep rising The world keeps melting How do we survive When everything breaks? [Chorus] Bombs on Monday morning Bombs on Monday morning Waiting for the news together Holding onto each other Explosion any moment Sky turns into thunder You make moments last forever Even when the world goes under Bombs on Monday morning Bombs on Monday morning The flowers keep growing Through the smoke and the ruins Bombs on Monday morning Bombs on Monday morning I swear I'll still love you Even when everything's broken [Verse 2A] Pinky promises Made beside the garden Before the flowers died Before the flowers died Doctor's orders Said don't lose your heart yet But how do we survive When the sirens arrive? Never thought that something Something so tragic Could come crashing through Our peaceful little family I hold onto memories You and the children Carousel spinning While the whole world is burning [Pre-Chorus] Bombs keep falling Sky keeps cracking Smoke fills the air And the ground still shakes Fires keep rising The world keeps breaking Still I hold your hand Through every earthquake [Chorus] Bombs on Monday morning Bombs on Monday morning Waiting for the news together Holding onto each other Explosion any moment Sky turns into thunder You make moments last forever Even when the world goes under Bombs on Monday morning Bombs on Monday morning The flowers keep growing Through the smoke and the ruins Bombs on Monday morning Bombs on Monday morning I swear I'll still love you Even when everything's broken [Verse 2B] Eyes full of starlight Still shining through the damage Even when they're crying Even when they're crying Scar lines like constellations Written across our bodies Even when we're dying Love keeps surviving Now that I'm grown I question existence It's dark, I'm alone Lost in the trenches You start to get old The world starts to bleed When you disappear Who remembers me? Shells keep falling The ground keeps cracking Every breath tastes like gunpowder and ash I'm blowing smoke through the ruins Wondering what I done My body in flames This time, I won't run Bodies face-down in the mud Helmets half-buried Fingers still curled around nothing I still hear the marches I still feel the heat War doesn't sleep And neither do I [Bridge] Trumpets in the distance Drums under my feet Marching through the wreckage On a blood-red street Every step a warning Every breath a debt I carry the fire I can never forget No flag left flying No glory to claim Just another soul Forgot my own name Bombs on Monday morning... Still echo through my brain... [Rap Bridge] I'm the winged messenger, heels sparking flame Mercury in the blood, still playin' the same game God of war in the smoke, every word is a blade Carryin' the bombs on Monday, no parade Swift through the ashes No rest for the cursed Quicksilver tongue Spit the truth till it hurts I was the herald Now I'm the casualty Dirty lungs, dirty lungs Still callin' me War-god cadence No mercy in the bar I delivered the fire Now I'm wearin' the scars Nobody I know Nowhere left to run Mercury's wings burned off Under a black sun Fade with the message The battlefield's home No medals left Only flesh and bone Hear the trumpets crying While the generals grin Everybody loses But the house still wins History repeats With another countdown Bombs on Monday morning Raining on this town Oh God, what have I done... I'm already gone... [Final Chorus] Bombs on Monday morning Bombs on Monday morning Waiting for the news together Holding onto each other Explosion any moment Sky turns into thunder You make moments last forever Even when the world goes under Bombs on Monday morning Bombs on Monday morning The flowers keep growing Through the smoke and the ruins Bombs on Monday morning Bombs on Monday morning I swear I'll still love you Even when everything's broken Bombs on Monday morning... Bombs on Monday morning... [Outro] (static) The garden is empty... Bombs... On Monday morning... (silence)
