Lyrics As Cities Burn

As Cities Burn

'84 Sheepdog

They fixed your brain when you were young

They fixed your brain when you were young

They fixed your brain, they fixed it

Before you knew the difference

And if the good Lord's good sheep do their jobs

You would never see they were wolves underneath

But good Lord have you ever seen so many teeth marks

That's right, those containers of light come with a kiss

But they got quite a bite

They fixed your brain when you were young

They fixed your brain when you were young

Fixed your brain, they fixed it

Before you knew the difference

They fixed your brain, they fixed it

Before you knew the difference

We got our sidewalks, we got all of our safely lit streets

We got all of our light tested beliefs

But when I find love so bright in the alleyway

They throw her overboard, I watch her get lost in the wake

They fixed your brain when you were young

They fixed your brain when you were young

They fixed your brain, they fixed it

Before you knew the difference

They fixed your brain when you were young

They fixed your brain when you were young

They fixed your brain, they fixed it

Oh, before you knew it

They fixed your brain when you were young

They fixed your brain when you were young

They fixed your brain, they fixed it

Before you knew it, oh
