pete miser – might be lyrics

[verse 1]
dust to ash and ash to dust
cameras shoot but don’t focus fast enough
downtown covered in trash and a lasting hush
newsmen scrambling asking us
“what did you see and where were you?”
and “did they get anybody that you knew?”
meanwhile there’s a party up 8th avenue
big screen cnn and plenty of brew

[hook]
and no one wants to be alone tonight
someone’s rallying the troops to fight
the president’s trying to make show of might
might be that we’re all wrong we might be right
and no one wants to be alone tonight
someone’s rallying the troops to fight
the president’s trying to make show of might
might be that we’re all wrong we might be right

[verse 2]
walking 14th from west to east to say the least
everyone’s stunned some talking ’bout peace
some talking ’bout war, “we’ve gotta even the score”
some talking ’bout the muslims who run the corner store
and i’m gonna be sick if i hear it anymore
nukes ready in a ship sittin’ just off sh-r-
and there’s this neighborhood girl i know i’ve seen before
talkin’ ’bout her mother worked on the ninety third floor
just part the m-sses school kids with no cl-sses
flags at half mast
smiles that are half fast
bush pushin’ for us to have the last laugh
but there’s no room for laughter after this blood bath
just fast and pray
prepare for the last day
cast away everything that you’re used to
refuse to believe what we see with our own eyes
in denial believing our own lies

[verse 3]
now i can understand the anger banging out so many hearts
’cause it was more than just two buildings that them devils tore apart
but when we start to pointing fingers i get queasy and sick
knowing deep in my heart that it comes down to politics
and who died and lied electing george jr. as god?
and who supplies the arms that usually get used for the job?
and what be making men mad enough to do these things?
and what makes our pain enough for them to want to dance and sing?
one glance brings only superficial answers
but we need to look inside ourselves to find the cancer
gotta stand for something or you’ll fall for it all
while our enemies are training we be off in the mall
and i for one am sick of guns and pointless loss of life
sick of christians claiming god but so d-mn ready to fight
sick of government officials with their fingers on the b-tton
tired of heads of state frontin’ talkin’ loud and sayin’ nothing
it’s a shame that it came to this but if i raise my fist
it’s for peace at least to coexist
and if we have to k!ll in the name of being free
then y’all can start it off by k!lling me for real
