Lyrics

Your invasion was a crime
Your (see through) righteous explanations lies
Kicking in our doors, raids at night
Won't win our heart, you've lost your minds
You're killing off my family
Did not make a fan out of me
If this is what your freedom reaps
Keep it for your united states
I'd tell you all these things but I can't speak because..

I'm dead, I'm dead
My life is life no more
I'm dead, I'm dead
Your bullets cut into my flesh
Woah oh, woah oh, woah oh

I loved to read, write poetry
I loved my friends, my family
I loved the sand, I loved the sea
The water splashing over me
Now I will haunt you in your dreams
Never another restful sleep
I'll forever be by your side
In life your victim, death your bride
My memory will haunt you when awake or asleep because..

I'm dead, I'm dead
My life is life no more
I'm dead, I'm dead
Your bullets cut into my flesh
Woah oh, woah oh, woah oh

Your cluster bombs ripped me to shreds

Woah oh, woah oh, woah oh
