"Syringes In The Sand" lyrics

Father's beating his youngest son
To show him how much love he has
Pregnant mother's buying cigarettes
Baby feels how much she cares
How could these deeply broken hearts
Teach you how to love?
Incoming prayers from beneath
Still killing you up above

Pretend love survived your death
Discord deep inside your chest
A broken soul
Skin and bones
And you're born again alone
On your own

Children playing on the streets
Gunshots overland
Only bitter's left in sweet
Syringes in the sand
You're waiting for eternities
For someone to put flowers on your grave
A little love might free what once
Was a heart to be saved

Pretend love survived your death
Discord deep inside your chest
A broken soul
Skin and bones
And you're born again alone

Children playing on the beach
Old white men polluting seas
A ballgame on the melting pavement
When we have poisoned all the seeds
We will just bite the hands that feeds
Before we hide in displacement

Pretend love survived your death
Discord deep inside your chest
A broken soul
Skin and bones
And you're born again

Pretend love survived your death
Discord deep inside your chest
A broken soul
Skin and bones
And you're born again alone
On your own
