A Better Way

Scan my thoughts scan my memory
Piece together what you find
Hold my gaze while you talk to me
Watch my history unwind
Just find a better way
Just find a better way
I let you push me for the details
You chose the ones to focus on
And now you're looking for the right words
Let me tell you there are none
Just find a better way
Just find a better way
Just find a better way
Take me back I'll tell you how it feels
You stoke the fire I'll let it burn
I'll let you see the hand the devil deals
And ask for nothing in return
Just find a better way
Just find a better way
Just find a better way
I could tell you how we stood in blissful innocence
The faithful young
I could tell you how it feels to have the only Mother
To see her son
And how the streets where I was raised became a prison to the
Only one
I was the only one
I was the only one.....
Scan my thoughts scan my memory
Piece together what you find
Hold my gaze as you talk to me
Watch my history unwind
But just find a better way

The lights in the distance
Only last for an instant
But the sound they bring won't go away
At only fifteen
The things I have seen
Can't take anymore gonna run away

From a safe distance
Of maybe a hundred years
They will come to know
A twist of fate
A momentary lapse of concentration
Now I stand alone
Just a step away
Just a step away
Nerves of steel
Shredded like paper and blown away
By the storm
On the edge looking down
You could fall at any time
One more push and you're gone
(No white stone) Just a step away
(Will be laid) Just a step away
(No white stone) Just a step away
(Will be laid) Just a step away
(No white stone)
From a safe distance
Of maybe twenty paces
They will come to know

You won't see from the safety of a century away
Into the mouth of a monochrome mechanised melee
That swallows you whole or chews you up and spits you out again
Never to get back home never to be the same
And all it does is take
All it does is take
First your heart then your head next you find your nerve has gone
(All it does is take)
You feel you've lost your sense of right you've lost your sense of wrong
(All it does is take)
Walk away you seal your fate a lesson to us other men
(All it does is take)
God forbid we should find our way out of this Hell they've put us in
And all it does is take
Live or die, it's not a choice you get to make
Within constant range there's only so much you can take
With no reserve, the only choice is try to live
You've made a crime of having nothing left to give
And all it does is take
All it does is take
You've offered us no explanation, no excuse
We consider you to be of no more military use
The facts have been collected the evidence now weighed
There is in our opinion an example to be made
It's useless to contend
You've nothing to defend
Prepare to meet your end at dawn
The morning sun rises up to catch our breath
Reminds us all that all we deal with here is death
We may deserve the chance to live
Until they find you've just got nothing left to give
One blank, one blank round or maybe more
It's what you all, it's what you'll all be hoping for
You'll feel it, you'll feel it in the rifle's kick
So aim it true, aim it true to make it quick
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
All it does is take
