Lyrics
Settle up, settle down, but settle the score
Why settle for less when you can settle for more?
Suiting up for the final push
“A bird in the hand, well that’s two in the bush”
With every provocation we’re evicting the past
Camp alpha, a little city in an oil trance
Rewrite history by the seat of our pants
Another occupation of the holy land
Jerusalem syndrome—got the better of you
Blackwater hired guns have come to see it through
Protection, an investment that is sold and bought
Memory and occupation, tied up in a knot
Feed the compulsion to plant the flag, install a prop
Helipads, built on top of artifacts
The desert littered with extended mags
A regional psychosis, is there something in the air?
Are those floodlights or a warning flare?
Sacred sites, toppled in a night
And all the sudden they were never there
