[00:26.162]The fans were whirlin'
[00:30.341]Like the blades of a 'copter
[00:39.928]Liftin' into the skies above some foreign land
[00:48.653]Soaked with the bodies of so many friends
[00:52.885]Johnny waved, he was on his way home
[01:04.170]Waved goodbye to his comrades in arms
[01:09.290]And all the twisted things he'd seen
[01:12.712]Waved goodbye
[01:19.634]And the blades hit somethin'
[01:34.837]Maybe just fate, but the blades hit
[01:40.898]The 'copter went up in flames
[01:45.574]And Johnny never went marchin' home
[01:51.425]Johnny never went marchin' home
[01:59.497]They took his name
[02:03.468]And they carved it on a slab of marble
[02:08.588]With several thousand other names
[02:14.962]All the fallen idols
[02:18.044]The apples of their mother's eye
[02:23.295]Just another name
[02:45.943]Meanwhile Back on that burning shore
[02:56.627]Johnny's comrades stood speechless
[03:04.777]They looked with uh uh uh uh disbelievin' eyes
[03:13.345]As those bits of metal and the embers
[03:21.861]The embers of his eyes, fanned out into the air
[03:28.522]Black dust, flames
[03:32.388]Oh! Johnny
[03:33.407]Some day they'll make a movie about you
[03:38.188]And in the makin' of movie
[03:40.695]Some mad apocalypse
[03:43.673]It will become even stranger
[03:47.905]Than the simple act
[03:50.988]Just a boy goin' up, up, up
[03:57.466]Just a boy goin' up, in flames, in the smoke
[04:03.082]Just another life, just another breath
[04:07.497]And who'll remember
[04:11.494]Oh! Eternity now
[04:14.890]As eternal as a sheet of marble
[04:18.286]Eternal as a slab on a green hill
[04:23.954]And your name and all your fallen brothers
[04:30.145]And all the ones not cut
[04:33.097]All the ones remembered only in the hearts
[04:39.053]A mother, a father, a brother
[04:41.169]A sister, a lover, a son, daughter
[04:52.715]Shall not, shall not fade, shall not fade
[05:16.382]Your ancestors salute you
[05:24.062]And the Gods of your ancestors, salute you
[05:29.522]Havin', havin' been formed by the minds of your ancestors
[05:36.340]The Gods of your ancestors, salute you
[05:40.571]Havin' been formed by your ancestors
[05:46.736]The Gods of your ancestors, salute you
[05:49.740]They draw you in, they draw you through
[05:54.991]They draw, they draw you through that golden door
[06:03.376]Mornin' boy, come in, we remember you
[06:16.176]We conceived of you, we conceived of your breath
[06:20.251]We conceived of the whole human race
[06:23.961]And we conceived it to be a beautiful thing
[06:27.905]Like a tulip bending in the wind
[06:32.633]Sometimes, it comes back to us
[06:35.167]In the form of a handful of dust
[06:39.007]Comes back in the form of smitten child
[06:45.303]Our raped daughters, our
[06:48.882]The broken bones, souls cleaved from hearts
[06:57.685]They come back to us and our hands are filled
[07:01.812]With their rotting tissues
[07:03.693]But we turn not our backs we press our lips
[07:16.571]Into their cancer, into the dust
[07:18.661]Into the remains of each one
[07:20.882]And that love is there and will greet you, will greet you
[07:33.525]Mornin' boy, it's eternal love
[08:17.855]
[08:20.467]Well here, go ahead
[08:25.247]Run through that flame
[08:27.912]Aww man, runnin' through your mind
[08:31.255]You took a cat, you took a life, you took it by the tail
[08:37.499]And you swirled it around your head
[08:41.051]And you thrashed it, you smashed the life out of it
[08:45.962]And you knew that would be your own
[08:49.855]But you wanted to feel, you wanted to feel it die
[08:54.635]Because you know, you would feel your own
[08:59.102]You would feel your own, but you're remembered
[09:03.908]You're remembered, you're remembered dead
[09:09.473]You're remembered dead, you're remembered dead
[09:27.837]We remember, we remember
[09:33.113]We remember, everything hah
[09:38.442]Everything hah
[09:41.734]Wau wau wau
[09:44.477]Wau wau wau
