Dead Precedents

Paint It Black
Ignore history
A charm school success story
Top of the class
In slash and burn diplomacy
Setting phasers to stun is no fun
So says the syllabus for Blitzkrieg 101
So Johnny get your gun
You singed your wings, flew too close to the sun
Too bad you never learned to turn tail and run
That's where we'll come undone
There's a thousand broken hearts on the homefront, baby
That you're too nearsighted to see
That's why you're falling off the charts on the homefront, baby
The mathematics of complicity
We are falling apart
That's as honest as I know how to be
