Tears For The Sheep Lyrics - Lucy Ford - Atmosphere

(Verse 1: Slug) 

A city of fools 

I wanna bash whoever's responsible for this incomprehensible lack of passion 

The sucker's been seduced down to the stick 

And the peasants fill their bellies with the poisons you omit 

I've come to seperate the heads and shoulders 

Of these tracin' paper soldiers 

That have been designated to take it over 

I'ma roll a couple of boulders off the cliff 

On the road below (look out below) 

'Cause I don't know what I'ma hit (yo) 

I live by the word until I die by your sword 

Even when I'm dead my head will live inside your RCA cords 

I wait for the right time, but it resembled now-a-days 

Descended on the Earth to put an end to all your holidays 

The assassin covered in plain clothes 

Smothered the sunlight and set flame to your rainbows 

And then came the storm (and then came the storm) 

Bewildered those that didn't contemplate 

Fake disguised as the norm (as the norm) 

And when the smoke evaporated and the damage was assessed 

The casualities were counted as they looked upon the mess 

As they focused they eyes on the horizon, who'da guessed? 

All that stood atop the hill was number seven silhouette

(Chorus: Slug) 

(And with this) head splitting tears, cement breaking 

weeping for these people walking in their sleep 

(these people walking in their sleep) 

My talk is not as cheap 

And my thoughts are not as deep 

As the day I woke up to discover I lost my sheep 

head splitting tears, cement breaking 

Leaping for these people walking in their sleep 

(these people walking in their sleep) 

My talk is not as cheap 

And my thoughts are not as deep 

As the day I woke up to discover I lost my sheep 

(Verse 2: Slug) 

They say a picture's worth a thousand words 

Well I beg a thousand pardons for each word I've used for personal gains 

But the letters that float through my head, demote my sentences 

Could never be contained by your simple picture frames 

For every intoxicated moment, I hate life 

Photos 

I strive to balance my aura by dancing with the light 

And sometimes it's difficult to stay quiet 

I fight it, each time I find myself walking across your eyelids 

Wishin' the malnutrition, the imagination of yours 

Could see the truth you breathe through each one of your pores 

And now the days are drastic, the nights last forever 

Wanna tear this motherfucker up and put it back together 

I'd like to ask the cats that act like they my peers 

If you spent the energy I've spit, tryin' to count the tears 

One of these days you're gonna climb the tallest building of all 

Give a warning to those below and let the tears fall 

(Chorus: Slug) 

(And with the) all the head splitting tears, cement breaking 

weeping for these people walking in their sleep 

(these people walking in their sleep) 

My talk is not as cheap 

And my thoughts are not as deep 

As the day I woke up to discover I lost my sheep 

head splitting tears, cement breaking 

Leaping for these people walking in their sleep 

(these people walking in their sleep) 

My talk is not as cheap 

And my thoughts are not as deep 

As the day I woke up to discover I lost my sheep 

(Brief Singing: Some Female) (2X) 

Nobodies here 'cept my mirror on the wall 

(Verse 3: Slug) 

The damage... overseen by anyone that comprehends 

The anguish... felt only by the ones that invest 

The language... was primitive, the listener complex 

And everybody was trying to define success 

All the self-proclaimed prophets dressed up to look like poets 

Pretendin' to be martyrs that they're not 

You can learn all their names 

And engrave them on your brains 

Memories so you can spout them off the top (spout them off the top) 

Yo kill 'em all, and let God give 'em handcuffs 

The flood has begun, and no one has been paired up 

So I'ma take a second to beckon the downfall 

of your so called civilized nation 

(Yo yo yo yo yo) stop the sound now! 

(Cough)
