Paint it black and white if you like
The story's still the same
A generation built on a lie, that
Every one of us is safe
Paint it black and white if you like
If it keeps you sane
You know the world just ain't right
So tell me, who's to blame?
And I will catch you, but who might
Break the fall?
Goddamn, I might be the son of sam
The only child of a holy man
I stand alone for all to see
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me
(Goddamn) Son of sam
Burning buildings from above
Send the best, and send their love
Turn away. Goodbye, goodnight
Go to sleep, now don't you cry
Are you afraid your life means less?
Are you concerned you might be next?
It's much too soon for me to tell
If you're in heaven or in hell
And I will catch you, but you might
Break the fall
Goddamn, I might be the son of sam
The only child of a holy man
I stand alone for all to see
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me
(Goddamn) Son of sam (Goddamn)
Your ceiling falling piece by pieces
Raining down like concrete
Just surrender, and remember what
You've done to me
Look now, over your shoulder
No, it's not over. it's just beginning
And now light the fire on ending
Goddamn, I might be the son of sam
The only child of a holy man
I stand alone for all to see
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me
Goddamn, I might be the son of sam
The only child of a holy man
I stand alone for all to see
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me
Son of sam
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me
Son of sam
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me
Son of sam
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me
Son of sam
