SMP - 24 Hours lyrics

24 hours for the nuclear powers I wouldn't run like a coward but my courage is soured So my mind's on the bottle and my hands on the Throttle The LCD on the toggle so good-bye tomorrow Now the payload is off and I don't have to regret it Because it's fire and forget it, let the HQ sweat it Cause there's flak in the air like the ozone's Skragged And God is laughing at me cuz my wings got tagged Thumbing the chaff but it just didn't matter Now Earth is falling at me cuz gravity ravages It's a balance of nature the Gs on my human form Ejection sequence in the eye of the sh** storm Freefall freefall mind thinking about all those days The wasted time, the pointless lies, the empty lives The truth is, I didn't wanna die Now I've been wandering the land, avoiding capture The enemy is on patrol, he never sleeps The uniforms they come and go, I've seen the change a Hundred times I've learned a wealth of knowledge, wartime Technological advance Come rescue me, why don't you come rescue me? From Baghdad to Tehran not a soul to whisper, midnight Vespers I see the fading skies and know, America has won, #1 #1, #1
