Shooting star across the desert sky
The sun is bleeding into my eye
I can't help but notice the way you talk
When darkness falls there will be war
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, you're bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding
Just happened to be
The most precious night
That I have ever lived
And they're still fighting
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, you're bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
I said I'd like to know what I'm fighting for
I've have no reason to die
I said I'd like to know what I'm fighting for
Before I die
You give them a gun, and tell them to take alive
I said I'm not willing to do that, baby
I'm not willing to do that, baby
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, you're bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
When darkness falls
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
The sun is bleeding into my eye
I can't help but notice the way you talk
When darkness falls there will be war
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, you're bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding
Just happened to be
The most precious night
That I have ever lived
And they're still fighting
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, you're bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
I said I'd like to know what I'm fighting for
I've have no reason to die
I said I'd like to know what I'm fighting for
Before I die
You give them a gun, and tell them to take alive
I said I'm not willing to do that, baby
I'm not willing to do that, baby
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, you're bleeding from within
I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding from within
I'm bleeding
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
When darkness falls
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn

i love it when they all stop what their doing and just play drums together.
Didnt think much of the video for it but it's still one of the best songs they've done.
A correction though:
It should be
"You give them a gun, and tell them to take a life"
instead of
"You give them a gun, and tell them to take alive"
As for meaning, it's just about the state of the world, with all the war, etc and feeling overwhelmed by it. I think it's really clearly put.
