(Use in the transition)(x2)
Blacktop pavement cover me
Like a chemical reaction or a steamroller, spreading randomly
There's a distant buzz and low frequency
It tickles my ears, rumbles under my feet
And it shakes the leaves off of every tree
Vio-lent-ly
What pretention! everlasting peace
Eve-ry-thing must cease
In-sti-tu-tion on the hill
Like a beacon in the mind of an ancestor to ignite a people's will
There's a shadow stain on the west facade
It has spread like decay to enshroud the fraud
and the descendents find it oh so odd, oh so odd
What pretention! everlasting peace
Eve-ry-thing must cease
Grave memorial, hewn white stone
Like the comforting caress of a mother or a friend you've always known
It evokes such pain and significance
What was once is reduced to rememberence
And the generations pass without recompense
Oh- Oh - Ohh
What pretention everlasting peace
Eve-ry-thing must... cease.
end with Am.
