Lyrics
Nicaragua
Leningrad
Cairo
Kabul
Reykjavik
La Paz
Vera Cruz
Oaxaca
Is that your lover draped around a mercenary?
Resolute to serve nobody,
Strangers lost on driven sand
Is that your body count
Revealed in lethal amounts?
Watch them fall on sacred ground
Strangers lost on driven sand
Ambush vinez remind us we are blind
Too removed to read the signs
Bogota to Leningrad
Carjacked on the silk road
Surprise surprise! If you’re inclined
Disguise along the great divide
Nicaragua to Reykjavik
Left for dead on the silk road
It’s just a state of mind
Beware the ambush vinez!
Is that your brother draped with “crime scene” tape?
Mapping out the great escape
Rejoicing as he is pistol-whipped?
Is that a lake or a mass grave?
The clueless sun illuminates
To irrigate the blood back
To the guns-for-hire sent through it…
