Prevent This Tragedy

Lyrics

Here we are again with handguns for hearts
 They had a master plan, wanted to tear us apart
 Nothing to hold, all hope deleted
 Our demise has been completed now
 Nowhere left to go but down
 The flames of hell they give me hope I drown
 In oceans of this tragic part of town
 Where nothing's heard for miles but the sound
 Of children wishing they were safely underground
 ♪
 We are the walking dead, we hold this ghost in our arms
 We take our daily breath and thank our unlucky stars
 Tried to get by on bread and water
 Craving blood poured from the altar now
 Not much left to do but drown
 In flames of miscommunication down
 Then out and off in search of someone proud
 To translate what we truly dream about
 As we lay in this bed thinking out loud
 ♪
 I'm screaming uncle, mercy me
 And my broken telepathy
 For I'm left with nothing but this bloodless river bank
 West Memphis please
 I'm begging you to stop praying for me
 Down
 The flames of hell they give me hope, I drown
 In oceans of this tragic part of town
 Where nothing's heard for miles but the sound
 Of children wishing they were safely underground
