Shed No Tears Lyrics
Shed no tears for the martyr dying
Only in pain suffering and death
Can the martyr become what he's chosen to be
No tears wasted
No sorrow, no pity
No, no crying, no loss
Shed no tears for the cop bleeding
He once held the gun he once held the key
Now his prisoners will sing and dance and play
No tears wasted
No sorrow, no pity
No, no crying, no loss
Shed no tears for the nun beaten
by the children she once called her flock
How they hate their teachers who force darkness upon us
No tears wasted
No sorrow, no pity
No, no crying, no loss
Shed no tears for the suicide
He has made his choice, the pain of life is great
And some will find it sweet to rot beneath the earth
As we rot and live and breathe
No tears wasted
No sorrow, no pity
No, no crying, no loss
Only in pain suffering and death
Can the martyr become what he's chosen to be
No sorrow, no pity
No, no crying, no loss
He once held the gun he once held the key
Now his prisoners will sing and dance and play
No sorrow, no pity
No, no crying, no loss
by the children she once called her flock
How they hate their teachers who force darkness upon us
No sorrow, no pity
No, no crying, no loss
He has made his choice, the pain of life is great
And some will find it sweet to rot beneath the earth
As we rot and live and breathe
No sorrow, no pity
No, no crying, no loss

Was surprised to see no comments. I guess it\'s pretty explanatory... Flipper never really had me guessing what they meant behind any song... They are brutally honest and basically were breaking things down to the point of understanding... Kind of like \'seeing the light\' on any sort of psychedelic.. I\'m starting to revisit THC and music again after a long break, and holy shit, what a trip that can take you on! I\'m a super lightweight right now so even half a joint sends me to space! Can\'t wait to get way up there and then put on the Generic Album...That\'s gonna leave a mark...
This would have to be the best song by any band of any Genre. Why are there no comments?
