This Is The End (For You My Friend) Lyrics
Anti-Flag
Lyrics
Seems every station, on the TV
Is selling something, no one can be
If every page was torn from the magazine
Would gas still drive the media machine
The products they mean us to pursue are endless
Identity can leave you selfless
We will not witness, this anymore
This is the end, for you my friend
I can't forgive, I won't forget
On and on, we sing out songs and
On and on, the wars wage on and
On and on, we sing our song for more, for more
Your eyes are open but you can't see
Your mouth is moving but you don't speak
A blitzkrieg of images to break your will
I hope you choke on every pill
We will not witness, this anymore
This is the end for you my friend
I can't forgive, I won't forget
On and on, we sing our songs and
On and on, the wars wage on and
On and on, we sing our songs for more
We will not witness this anymore
This is the end for you my friend
I can't forgive, I won't forget
This is the end for you my friend
I can't forgive, I won't forget
On and on, we sing our songs and
On and on, the wars wage on and
On and on, we sing our songs and
On and on, the wars wage on and
On and on, we sing our songs and
On and on, the wars wage on and
On and on, we sing our songs for more
We sing our songs for more
