Six Feet Under
We are your shield, the line in the sand
We take your bullets and we make your stand
A scattershot payment
For each and every sin
Through storms of lead
We’ve screamed and bled
'Don’t tread on me' she said
We’re all unclean
From all I’ve seen
Oh God wash this from my dreams!
We’re mice and men and might-have-beens
Our heavy hearts beating like thunder
The bastard sons brought home again
Our heartbeats still we’re six feet under
Nobody knows the trouble we’ve been
Or if we'll ever get back again
A scattershot prayer
'God save us' and Amen
Through storms of lead
We’ve screamed and bled
'Don’t tread on me' she said
We’re all unclean
From all I’ve seen
Oh God wash this from my dreams!
We’re mice and men and might-have-beens
Our heavy hearts beating like thunder
The bastard sons brought home again
Our heartbeats still we’re six feet under
Through storms of lead
We’ve screamed and bled
'Don’t tread on me' she said
We’re all unclean
From all I’ve seen
Oh God wash this from my dreams!
We’re mice and men and might-have-beens
Our heavy hearts beating like thunder
The bastard sons brought home again
Our heartbeats still we’re six feet under
Mice and men
Six feet under
The bastard sons brought home again
Six feet under
