Imperial body bags
Coming home in dribs and drabs
Life as numbers with doggy tags
Filled with holes they’re coming back

So come out of the skies
Never had a chance to wave goodbye
Thrown away and unhappy
Driven by hypocrisy

Nothing’s finished, it just fades away
Like a lover who has lost her faith
Nothing’s finished, it just fades away, fades away

Imperial body bags
Prom queen disposable
Children wrapped in home made flags
Imperial body bags
Prom queen disposable
Children wrapped in home made flags

And yeah, we loved our kids
We’re still human like everyone else
Average withdrawn, stuck in school
Always willing to stick by the rules

Nothing’s finished, it just fades away
Like a lover who has lost her faith
Nothing’s finished, it just fades away, fades away

Imperial body bags
Prom queens disposable
Children wrapped in home made flags
Imperial body bags
Prom queen disposable
Children wrapped in home made flags…
