Testify
The movie ran through meThe glamour subdued meThe tabloid untied meI'm empty please fill meMister anchor assure meThat Baghdad is burningYour voice it is so soothingThat cunning mantra of killingI need you my witnessTo dress this up so bloodlessTo numb me and purge me nowOf thoughts of blaming youYes the car is our wheelchairMy witness your coughingOily silence mocks the legless boysWho travel now in coffinsOn the cornerThe jury's sleeplessWe found your weaknessAnd it's right outside your door
Now testifyNow testifyIt's right outside your doorNow testifyYes testifyIts right outside your door
With precision you feed meMy witness I'm hungryYour temple it calms meSo I can carry onMy slaving sweating the skin right off my bonesOn a bed of fire I'm choking on the smoke that fills my homeThe wrecking ball is rushingWitness your blushingThe pipeline is gushingWhile here we lie in tombsWhile on the cornerThe jury's sleeplessWe found your weaknessAnd it's right outside your door
Now testifyYeah testifyIt's right outside your doorNow testifyNow testifyIt's right outside your door
