Oil & Opium Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I turned eighteen 2001
Put down my pen, picked up a gun
I traveled towards the risin' sun
Land of oil and opium

[Verse 2]
At night I think of things I've done
Sometimes I wonder just who won
We blew that place to kingdom-come
And all for oil or opium

[Chorus]
God, won't you save my soul?
I feel I'm fallin' down this deep, dark hole [Verse 3]
I lose my equilibrium
My heart, it pounds just like a drum
All through my head, I hear a hum
Sound of oil and opium

[Verse 4]
You'll turn this page from back to front
Put down this pen, picked up my gun
God, don't you send another son
To die for oil or opium
