Blanket

[Words by Mark Eudy]If I kill one innocent person, to save twenty or more……will I be a hero in your heaven, if I die to praise a lord?I can perfect my Elvis Presley lip-curlWhile I'm staring at the whole wide worldAnd I'm reporting to no oneBeing the subversive is so much funI wonder what it's like killing non- combatants,There is no such thing as a surgical strikeWhatever happens, happens.Maybe it will happen tonight.Is this just a justification?Does testosterone make you serious?Did I just give myself instructions to go numb and be furious?I'm about a quart low on milk of amnesia.It's getting harder to be martyr.I've got violence running hotI've got violence running coldWhatever happens, happens,What's your definition of innocence?
