Running through the streets With my heart in my throat Through the bombs and the scams And the broken down plans The fever, the visions, in this cruel god This is not a test, this is not a test I can't deny I'm hard wired to love you To the protect and defend, and lie under your boot We spend the day, watch the bullets ricochet When the floods come, when the floods come This is not a test, this is not a test This is not a test, this is not a test Red mud walls, covered with fresco The blood and the sand, feel you under my hand Captured in the light, that radiates off you And it's all, and it's all in your sideways glance I can't deny I'm hard wired to love you To the protect and defend, feel you under my hand We spend the day, watch the bullets ricochet When the floods come, when the floods come I can't deny I'm hard wired to love you To the protect and defend, feel you under my hand We spend the day, watch the bullets ricochet When the floods come, when the floods come Running through the streets With my heart in my throat Through the bombs and the scams And the broken down plans The fever, the visions, in this cruel god This is not a test, this is not a test I can't deny I'm hard wired to love you To the protect and defend, feel you under my hand We spend the day, watch the bullets ricochet When the floods come, when the floods come I can't deny I'm hard wired to love you To the protect and defend, feel you under my hand We spend the day, watch the bullets ricochet When the floods come, when the floods come When the, floods come When the, floods come This is not a test This is not a test
