Song Lyrics

We`ve had a lot of good times brother
I`ve knows you all my life
Mixing blood and drugs and women
In your journey to the endless night

I`ve watched you kill the love you`re given
You sold your vision for a glimpse of heaven

Once you were a thief of fire
Now you`re just a junkie liar
What you gonna cop
When the bomb drops?

There`s been a million people brother
Just like you before
Think you`re beyond good and eveil
You can`t even find the door

Painting pictures on your wall
In junkie blood
Hey man! Ain`t that cool?
It`s so beautiful!

Once you were a thief of fire
Now you`re just a junkie liar
What you gonna cop
When the bomb drops?

Ain`t no medicine to cure you
Ain`t no woman you can love
Only death can make you painless
Only death can make you come

Junkie Jesus on the cross
You beg for scraps like a mongrel dog

Once you were a thief of fire
Now you`re just a junkie liar
What you gonna cop
When the bomb drops?
