I Donated Myself To The Mexican Army

Joseph Arthur

I donated myself to the mexican army 
We were 10000 guns shooting into the night 
Turning screams into sand and sand into blood 
And murdering darkness with fire and light 

I don't know where we're going from here 
I'm just following orders 
I don't know how we'll conquer the king 
This ain't my revolution 

Out in the field there's no such thing as mercy 
We bloom through the night into flowers of death 
"I don't beleieve any thing that I've said" 
Jesus was heard saying under his breath 

I don't know where we're going from here 
I'm just following orders 
I don't know how we'll conquer the king 
This ain't my revolution 

I donated myself to the mexican army 
I gave all my love to a mexican whore 
I gave her my dreams and I gave her my money 
I buried my family under her floor 

I don't know where we're going from here 
I'm just following orders 
I don't know how we'll conquer the king 
This ain't my revolution 

I wish I believed in divine destinations 
I wish I believed in a world made of light 
The needles are biting the arms of salvation 
And the mexican army is trained and ready to fight 

I don't know where we're going from here 
I'm just following orders 
I don't know how we'll conquer the king 
This ain't my revolution
