Brutal Planet

Collecting pieces of my family
here in old pillow case
this one has a skull
but it don't have a face


These look like the arms
of my father so strong
and the ring on this finger
means my Grandmother's gone


Here's some legs in a cloud
where my sister once played
here's some mud made of blood
And these teeth are decayed


The ear of my brother
the hand of a friend
and I just can't
put them back together again


Pick up the bones
and set them on fire
follow the smoke
going higher and higher
Pick up the bones
and wish them goodnight
pray them a prayer
and turn out the light


There are stains on the floor
where kitchen once stood
there are ribs on the fire place
mixed with the wood


There are forces in the air
ghosts in the wind
Some bullets in the back
and some scars on the skin


There were demons with guns
who marched through this place
killing everything that breath
they're an inhuman race


There are holes in the walls
bloody hair on the bricks
and the smell of this hell
is making me sick


Pick up the bones
and set them on fire
follow the smoke
going higher and higher
Pick up the bones
and wish them goodnight
pray them a prayer
and turn out the light


Pick up the bones
and set them on fire
follow the smoke
going higher and higher
Pick up the bones
and wish them goodnight
pray them a prayer
and turn out the light


Now maybe someday
The suns gonna shine
Flowers will bloom
And all will be fine


But nothing'll grow
On this burnt cursed ground
Cuz the breathe of the death
Is the only sound
