If I Had Eyes - Alexandre Over Persepolis lyrics

your bombs always leave a hole in my chest tactics even the kgb would be jealous of the infultration of the stronghold is of no difficulty greatness has everything to do with kingship a ruler with a fist as powerful as his sceptre this is about power, this is about government this is about wearing heavy armor this is about protection even though you have no one to fear measuring your time spent on the throne in months and the length of your red carpet in years this is about dreams and drunkeness and in your stupor you burnt your own castle to the ground you've made them angry and the people have a voice its called the flamberge here comes d**h in a red dress our love for war. can only. bring us. to the. firing squad so tie yourself down this is going to be one hell of a ride put a revolver to, the strongest man's head, and you'll get him to cry and wish to god he never had to endure the test of will the test of strength the chinese torture methods were all wrong and in the morning you'll wish you were dead now reflect a**a**inate the president they tell you revolution is a healthy part of progress and so we'll seal the deal with a shot you grab the gun i'll grab the booze you're not going to want to remember any of this and like a dream it can fade swirl away like everything else we'll take the stage via stolen arms and dance the night away not worrying which wire to cut the blue, the red; neither are important and as the song ends we'll know how to disarm the bomb the world is safe once more but we're not i know its all been said and done before i'm just another hopeless romantic i know its all been said and done before a heartbroken cliche
