Paroles

0:14Shot to the skull or a strike to the brain
0:22As you withdraw you give death a bad name
0:29Can you be stopped or can evil be slain
0:36Is there something to be lost to surrender the pain
0:44You're just a shade of something betrayed
0:48Watch as you fade into the reservoir
0:51Can you exist
0:53Shade of the oculist
0:55No conciousness less than a metaphor
1:06What was once dead is now coming for you
1:13The television said it's the right thing to do
1:21Give me a name more than a flame
1:24More than a flame
1:25Can it contain more than a metaphor
1:28Show me your face give it some breathing space
1:32Feel my embrace empty the reservoir
1:43Was it for profit or was it for gain
1:50You gave it your all you gave life a bad name
1:58Sentries trembling voices assembling
2:00Voices assembling
2:01Nothing resembling what it had been before
2:05Contamination death to America
2:09Reanimation what are you waiting for
2:13Give me a name more than a flame
2:15More than a flame
2:16Can it contain more than a metaphor
2:19Show me your face give it some breathing space
2:23Feel my embrace empty the reservoir
2:35Shot to the skull or a strike to the brain
2:41The cadaver on the cross you give love a bad name
2:49Can you explain all our divided pain
2:53What still remains after the rigor mortis
2:57Poured gasoline ghost in a dead machine
3:00God save the queen lessons and metaphors
3:04Hung from a tree
3:06Edge of the canopy
3:07All this debris
3:09Signals and semaphores
3:11Round them all up
3:13Drink from the Holy Cup
3:15Battered in blood
3:17What are you waiting for
3:19Jump from the fire into the frying pan
3:22Voice of the choir now you are born again
3:26Gathered in song calling all next of kin
3:30Can't do no wrong perfect American
3:33Follow your dream
3:35Into the black and white
3:37Anthropocene
3:39Live it up give a fight
3:41Shot through the heart
3:42God bless America
3:44Failed from the start
3:46What are you waiting for
3:48Shot to the skull or a strike to the brain
3:53What are you waiting for
3:54What are you waiting for
3:56The cadaver on the cross you give love a bad name
4:01What are you waiting for
Shot to the skull or a strike to the brain
As you withdraw you give death a bad name
Can you be stopped or can evil be slain
Is there something to be lost to surrender the pain
You're just a shade of something betrayed
Watch as you fade into the reservoir
Can you exist
Shade of the oculist
No conciousness less than a metaphor
What was once dead is now coming for you
The television said it's the right thing to do
Give me a name more than a flame
More than a flame
Can it contain more than a metaphor
Show me your face give it some breathing space
Feel my embrace empty the reservoir
Was it for profit or was it for gain
You gave it your all you gave life a bad name
Sentries trembling voices assembling
Voices assembling
Nothing resembling what it had been before
Contamination death to America
Reanimation what are you waiting for
Give me a name more than a flame
More than a flame
Can it contain more than a metaphor
Show me your face give it some breathing space
Feel my embrace empty the reservoir
Shot to the skull or a strike to the brain
The cadaver on the cross you give love a bad name
Can you explain all our divided pain
What still remains after the rigor mortis
Poured gasoline ghost in a dead machine
God save the queen lessons and metaphors
Hung from a tree
Edge of the canopy
All this debris
Signals and semaphores
Round them all up
Drink from the Holy Cup
Battered in blood
What are you waiting for
Jump from the fire into the frying pan
Voice of the choir now you are born again
Gathered in song calling all next of kin
Can't do no wrong perfect American
Follow your dream
Into the black and white
Anthropocene
Live it up give a fight
Shot through the heart
God bless America
Failed from the start
What are you waiting for
Shot to the skull or a strike to the brain
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
The cadaver on the cross you give love a bad name
What are you waiting for
