Oil & Opium - Hellbound Glory

I turned eighteen 2001

Put down my pen, picked up a gun

I traveled towards the risin' sun

Land of oil and opium

At night I think of things I’ve done

Sometimes I wonder just who won

We blew that place to kingdom-come

And all for oil or opium

God, won’t you save my soul?

I feel I’m fallin' down this deep, dark hole

I lose my equilibrium

My heart, it pounds just like a drum

All through my head, I hear a hum

Sound of oil and opium

You’ll turn this page from back to front

Put down this pen, picked up my gun

God, don’t you send another son

To die for oil or opium
