The Savior Lyrics
No one was too surprised to hear the news that day.
America had raped your sacred land,
And if that wasn't bad enough, your little child
Is lying still because of some fool's bloody plans.
It's been a while since
I've been around, so
I will be there on time.
They thought they'd killed you,
Were only mourning
While your people cried.
And then my so-called brothers in this land of hate
Laughed and shook their fists about the war,
It's terror out of our hands again but still they say,
Democracy and freedom prevailed once more.
It's been a while since
I've been around, so
I will be there on time.
I am the savior,
U.S. behavior
Is far below the slime.
And Moammar told me how it was to lose a child,
And I'll admit I can't imagine why.
My father brought me back to all this fear and pain,
I'll turn the other cheek the day I die.
America had raped your sacred land,
And if that wasn't bad enough, your little child
Is lying still because of some fool's bloody plans.
I've been around, so
I will be there on time.
Were only mourning
While your people cried.
Laughed and shook their fists about the war,
It's terror out of our hands again but still they say,
Democracy and freedom prevailed once more.
I've been around, so
I will be there on time.
U.S. behavior
Is far below the slime.
And I'll admit I can't imagine why.
My father brought me back to all this fear and pain,
I'll turn the other cheek the day I die.

If you keep the song going, there's more at the end; almost like a hidden song or something. If you listen to what Doc is saying, it's almost like a love song or something. The only Crucifucks song I've ever heard that features a piano.
we used that piece your talking about (not the savior, but the outro) in our wedding (along with some other songs). It's frickin' beautiful. Lyrics are something like: I'm so lucky that you love me / just the way it was meant to be / making me happy is your specialty / And I Love You / .... (there's more but I'm not sure...)

This song is about the 1986 US Bombings of Libya, in which Muammar al-Gaddafi's 2 year old child was killed. Truly a beautiful song.
