Drones by Border Patrol Lyrics

Someone behind a computer
Someone many miles away
Someone who will never see me
Killed my mother yesterday

And somewhere they have got a family
Somewhere many miles away
Somewhere I will never visit
Maybe Denver or Green Bay

And I haven't slept in days now
I think I'll never sleep again
Peace is never nearby
Livin in the lion's den

When we dream, we dream of drones
dream, we dream of drones
we dream of smoke and sulfur dust
fire and burning bones
we dream of chunks of rubble
the remnants of our homes
you'll never catch me sleeping
when we dream, we dream of drones
This was nothing that I asked for
This was nothing that I did
But there's no way to unremember
the cries of murdered kids

This one used to be a brother
This one used to be a spouse
This one used to be a parent
This one was our family's house

And they say that in the movies
Your dreams will all come true
but I can't seem to fathom
Why you'd ever want them to

When we dream, we dream of drones
dream, we dream of drones
we dream of smoke and sulfur dust
fire and burning bones
we dream of chunks of rubble
the remnants of our homes
you'll never catch me sleeping
when we dream, we dream of drones

And maybe someday in your city
maybe someday much too soon
maybe you will understand me
when the smoke obscures the moon
Maybe when the power goes out
Maybe some day much too near
Maybe then you'll finally realize
Dreams are always made of fear

And we'll go on in that manner
A short ways up the stream
The world will finally go dark
But at least it will not dream

When we dream, we dream of drones
dream, we dream of drones
we dream of smoke and sulfur dust
fire and burning bones
we dream of chunks of rubble
the remnants of our homes
you'll never catch me sleeping
when we dream, we dream of drones
