The story’s still the same
A generation built on a lie, that
Every one of us is safe
Paint it black and white if you like,
If it keeps you sane
You know the world wont just stay right
So tell me, who’s to blame ?
Break the fall ?
The only child of a holy man
I stand alone for all to see,
‘Cause they ain’t never seen a war like me
(Goddamn) Son of sam
Burning buildings fall apart
Send the best, and send their love
Turn away. Goodbye, goodnight
Go to sleep, now don’t you cry
Are you afraid your life means less ?
Are you concearned you might be next ?
Its much too soon for me to tell,
If you’re in heaven or in hell
And I will catch you, but who might
Break the fall ?
Goddamn, I might be the son of sam
The only child of a holy man
I stand alone for all to see,
‘Cause they ain’t never seen a war like me
(Goddamn) Son of sam
(Goddamn)
Your ceiling falling piece by pieces,
Raining down like concrete
Just surrender, and remember what
You’ve done to me
Look now, over your shoulder
No, its not over. Its just beginning
And now light the fire on ending
Goddamn, I might be the son of sam
The only child of a holy man
I stand alone for all to see,
‘Cause they ain’t never seen a war like me
Son of sam
‘Cause they ain’t never seen a war like me
