Part of Me Died - Roger Waters

Written by：Roger Waters

The part that is envious cold-hearted and devious

Greedy mischievous global colonial

Bloodthirsty blind mindless and cheap

Focused on borders and slaughtering sheep

Burning of books bulldozing of homes

Giving to targeted killing with drones

Lethal injections arrest without trial

Monocular vision gangrene and slime unction sarcasm

Common assault self satisfied heroic killers lifted on high

Piracy avarice acid attacks on women by murderers

And perverts and hacks

The rigging of ballots and the buying of power

Lies from the pulpit R**e in the shower

Mute indifferent feeling no shame

Portly important leering deranged

Sat in the corner watching TV

Deaf to the cries of children in pain

Dead to the world just watching the game

Watching endless repeats out of sight out of mind

Silence indifference the ultimate crime

But when I met you that part of me died

Bring me a bow to

Bring me my final cigarette

It would be better by far to die in her arms than to linger

In a lifetime of regret
