Counting Bodies Like Sheep

Don't fret precious I'm here.
Step away from the window.
Go back to sleep

Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils,
See, they don't give a fuck about you, like I do.

Counting bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Go back to sleep

Go back to sleep

Counting bodies like sheep

Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

Counting bodies like sheep

Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

Counting bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums

To the rhythm of the war drums [x2]

I’ll be the one to protect you from your enemies and all your demons
I'll be the one to protect you from a will to survive and a voice of reason
I'll be the one to protect you from your enemies and your choices son
They're one in the same, I must isolate you…
Isolate and save you from yourself …

This song makes me think because it is obviously a shot towards the way our government has been functioning. This song is also against America's involvement in war with the Middle East, "counting bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drum." It also critiques the way there was phone tapping and not as much public information about the works of the government.
