lyrics
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

Music & lyrics by Andy Nixon and Pete Riley
Subdued and elegiac songs from Tom Kelly that have the grandeur of classical music, the technicality of prog, and the sweep of synthwave. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 6, 2020
