The promise of forever
Tastes heavy on my tongue
The lucky country severed from itself
When we were young
Now the fires ever-raging
Would steal this promise from her sons
While her daughters run in fear
Between the station and their homes
The serpent dances over
From one hole into the next
But when the bodies all dry up
Will the water spill from us instead?
Are you with us?
You can't sleep through this, there will be nothing left
By the time that you accept
That we're on fire
The midnight oil spills out from the urn
But all our beds are damned to burn away
Hey, you
Think we could talk about it?
Another lie, another excuse
It's just our lives you're playing with
Hey, you
Is now a good time for you to admit it?
Take the fall
You sold our future
You killed us all
O servant of greed, you cover your tracks
(And do you see now the master you serve?)
You can't keep us down, we'll take it all back
(The god of skin cancer, watch as skies burn)
O servant of greed, you cover your tracks
You can't keep us down, you can't keep us down
You can't keep us down, you can't keep us down
Are you with us?
You can't sleep through this, there will be nothing left
By the time that you accept
That we're on fire
The midnight oil spills out from the urn
But all our beds are damned to burn away
Tastes heavy on my tongue
The lucky country severed from itself
When we were young
Now the fires ever-raging
Would steal this promise from her sons
While her daughters run in fear
Between the station and their homes
The serpent dances over
From one hole into the next
But when the bodies all dry up
Will the water spill from us instead?
Are you with us?
You can't sleep through this, there will be nothing left
By the time that you accept
That we're on fire
The midnight oil spills out from the urn
But all our beds are damned to burn away
Hey, you
Think we could talk about it?
Another lie, another excuse
It's just our lives you're playing with
Hey, you
Is now a good time for you to admit it?
Take the fall
You sold our future
You killed us all
O servant of greed, you cover your tracks
(And do you see now the master you serve?)
You can't keep us down, we'll take it all back
(The god of skin cancer, watch as skies burn)
O servant of greed, you cover your tracks
You can't keep us down, you can't keep us down
You can't keep us down, you can't keep us down
Are you with us?
You can't sleep through this, there will be nothing left
By the time that you accept
That we're on fire
The midnight oil spills out from the urn
But all our beds are damned to burn away
