Sleep Now in the Fire

The world is my expense



The cost of my desire


Jesus blessed me with its future


And I protect it with fire


So raise your fists


And march around


Just don't take what you need


I'll jail and bury those committed


And smother the rest in greed


Crawl with me into tomorrow


Or I'll drag you to your grave


I'm deep inside your children


They'll betray you in my name






Hey, hey


Sleep now in the fire






Hey, hey


Sleep now in the fire






The lie is my expense


The scope of my desire


The party blessed me with its future


And I protect it with fire


I am the Nina The Pinta The Santa Maria


The noose and the rapist


The fields overseer


The agent of orange


The priests of Hiroshima


The cost of my desire


Sleep now in the fire






Hey, hey


Sleep now in the fire






Hey, hey


Sleep now in the fire






For it's the end of history


It's caged and frozen still


There is no other pill to take


So swallow the one


That made you ill


The Nina The Pinta The Santa Maria


The noose and the rapist


The fields overseer


The agent of orange


The priests of Hiroshima


The cost of my desire


To Sleep now in the fire

  1. You have made some progress with opening new pages that have questions to explore. But I don't see any progress toward finding answers or beginning to conceptualize a draft of the paper that is due tomorrow.
