"A lot of bad things happen at night. The sky just lit up, and it was just green tracers. Nobody else is there to help you...it's, it's just you."

Whatever happens now
Is beyond my control
Emotion has abandoned me
Faded away
Faded away and left me...cold

The call's been made and I'm here
Dependent on the atmosphere
Contained inside this mask I wear
My breathing...is all I hear

I've got the target switch in hand
I just feel numb
Scanning the ground at the hell that I'll make
I'm above it in the air
Flying high above the city walls
As the insurgents run
Can't stand their ground against the hell
That I'll make
I'm above it in the air

I see it all so clear
At 30,000 feet above the enemy
No one can see me...press execute

I'll send the Pigs away
The tortured painful cries
Will never fall upon my ears
And never stain my elder years
My heartbeat...is all I'll feel

Infrared tracks the land
As the weapons lock
There's no defense against
The Hell that I'll make
I'm above it in the air
I'm above it
Moving past the speed of sound
I won't see them when they hit the ground
No hiding from the Hell that I make
I'm above it in the air
I'm a shadow

Over the rooftops of the city
The word travels fast from cell phone to cell phone
They demand to see their faces of the women
Hidden behind the veil

Flaming oil blackens the sky
I don't know why
Their hate is the reason for the Hell that I make
I'm above it in the air, I'm above it
Gazing down at the burning land
I'm the creator of this new Promised Land
And I wonder what the hell did I make
I'm above it in the air, I'm above it

I'm above it
What in the hell did I make?

I'm above it
What in the hell did I make?
I'm above it

I'm above it
What in the hell did I make?

I'm above it
What in the hell did I make?

I'm above it
What in the hell did I make?
I'm above it in the air, I'm above it
