Death From Above

Death From Above

Thrice

I always thought, I always thought
That there was something different, setting us apart
That I was led, that I was led by men
With sober minds and sympathetic hearts

I swore an oath, swore an oath
But never knew just what it was to take a life
I play at God, play at God across the distances
And from so great a height

But I am never sure who I am killing
How many innocents were in the building?
I drop death out of the
No longer human beings, no longer people
Just targets on a screen, none of it’s real
I drop death out of the sky, tell me why

One day they sent, one day they sent me to the chaplain
When I said I can’t go on
All he said, all he said was just to shut my mouth
And do the will of God

But I am never sure who I am killing
How many innocents were in the building?
I drop death out of the
No longer human beings, no longer people
Just targets on a screen, none of it’s real
I drop death out of the sky… Tell me why?

Tell me why?
To make us safe, so it would seem
But we shoot further than we dream
Can’t we see? We only justify
Someone’s resolve to rise against
And to avenge the innocent
And defend the ones that still survive
I’m still asking: why?
