"Son Of Sam" lyrics - SHINEDOWN

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 won't just stay right, so tell me who's to blame

And I will catch you
But who might break the fall

Goddamn, I wanna 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) Son of Sam

Burning buildings fall apart, 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
Its much too soon for me to tell, if you're in heaven or in hell

And I will catch you
But who might break the fall

Goddamn, I wanna 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) Son of Sam
(Goddamn)

Your ceiling falling piece by piece is, 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 wanna 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)

Goddamn, I wanna 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, Son of Sam
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me
Son of Sam, Son of Sam
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me
Son of Sam, Son of Sam
'Cause they ain't never seen a war like me
Son of Sam, Son of Sam
