To sacrifice oneself never made sense to me
Cause life is really the only and last gift we've all received
Some will waste it in the name of something you can't see
Continually defeats the purpose of that something, creating...
Oh, delusions
Are meant to justify, justify the things you do
Oh, delusions
Never really qualified, qualified as an excuse
As he approached the city center with the skyline in view
There was nothing left to contemplate, he knew he must follow through
With a plan certified by faith and a plan written in death
At that moment, this was it, he took his last breath
Oh, delusions
Are meant to justify, justify the things you do
Oh, delusions
Never really qualified, qualified as an excuse
No more hiding, no more hiding, no more blame
No more fighting, no more fighting, no more pain
No more chaos, no more chaos, no more stress
No more addiction, no more addiction, no more mess
No more attitudes, no more swollen heads
No more greed, no more feeding from the hand
No more writing, no more blaming it on the man
Realize it's our own fault
Da-da-da, do-do-da-do-da
Cause life is really the only and last gift we've all received
Some will waste it in the name of something you can't see
Continually defeats the purpose of that something, creating...
Oh, delusions
Are meant to justify, justify the things you do
Oh, delusions
Never really qualified, qualified as an excuse
As he approached the city center with the skyline in view
There was nothing left to contemplate, he knew he must follow through
With a plan certified by faith and a plan written in death
At that moment, this was it, he took his last breath
Oh, delusions
Are meant to justify, justify the things you do
Oh, delusions
Never really qualified, qualified as an excuse
No more hiding, no more hiding, no more blame
No more fighting, no more fighting, no more pain
No more chaos, no more chaos, no more stress
No more addiction, no more addiction, no more mess
No more attitudes, no more swollen heads
No more greed, no more feeding from the hand
No more writing, no more blaming it on the man
Realize it's our own fault
Da-da-da, do-do-da-do-da

"As he approached the city center with the skyline in view There was nothing left to contemplate, he knew he must follow through With the plan certified by faith and a plan written in death At that moment, this was it, he took his last breath"
Is this in reference to suicide bombings?
To summarize this song in a few words, "9/11 was a faith-based initiative." They enjoyed criticizing religion on this album. This song is essentially saying that your religious delusions are no excuse for harming yourself and others. Awesome, just awesome.
These guys are absolutely phenomenal! We had the pleasure of meeting them on Santa Monica and going to back to a house and drinking beers...incredible music
