Fit For Heroes?

When what’s done is done
And what’s said has been said
When what’s wrong is right
And what’s right is wrong
You took our trust and sold it away
Sucked our blood then cast us away
Is this land, fit for heroes?
When you’ve done your duty
And you’ve served your time
Whether the scars are healed
Or an open pussy sore
They say we cry the same tears
And breathe the same breath
And we drink it up
On the way to the slaughterhouse

When it all comes to pass
And last orders are called
As the curtain falls
And the credits roll
All’s said and done
The last breath is drawn
And the sun starts to set
As the audience roars
One more step, one more time
This ending’s my beginning
One more step, one more line
In life’s pages that I’m writing
At journeys end
The flame flickers out
A whistle blown
When your last hands been thrown

Once so lovely,
Oh she shimmered,
Would she want me?
Smoke and mirrors.
Fortune favours,
Brave or madness,
Should have guessed what,
Was behind this.
I was sweating,
She was drinking,
Flash of greenback,
Set her thinking.
Fortune, clearly,
Oh she wants it,
House 1250,
Get a key cut.
She lives like a louse on a sore head,
She gets what she wants and in your bed,
The living is easy and so fine,
When she grabs your money and your mind.

Tonight

Tonight I feel alive
A feeling I can’t describe
Tonight I feel emotion
A pure uncut line of devotion
I’ll take your image, to my grave
The prettiest moments I long to save
And you will forever be in my heart
For your smile, I’d pound the streets
With bloodied, blistered and hurting feet
Just to catch the warmth in your eyes
Tonight I saw my heaven
Like I died for just a split second
Tonight I felt a shiver
A hailstorm of petals and glitter
A smile to turn the seasons chill
To that of warmth and flowered fields
Which I long to run through to you
I feel the love
Tonight I feel a precious love
It’s gonna last, it’s gonna last
