A Million Arms

(S. Blood )

A million arms to hold you with
A million arms to take a fifth
A million arms to lift a cause
A million arms to lock your jaws

A million tongues to be so kind
A million tongues to lash your mind
A million tongues to warm the cave
A million tongues to make you brave

We all know about your history
You’ll get a fuckin’ war that you won’t believe

A million guns to plant the seed
A million guns to make you bleed
A million guns to take the lead
A million guns and then you’re freed, yeah

We all know about your history
You want the war, you won’t believe?
No, you ain’t got no blind fold on me
Cuz I see your, your history

A million games, a million names, a million veins and a million canes

A million lords, a million wards, a million boards and a million records

The teachers, the leachers, the reachers, the pick-pocket creatures
Watching the rain up in the bleachers

A million arms I hold you with
A million arms I take a fifth
A million arms I lift a cause
A million arms I lock your jaws
