Lyrics
He survived but his destiny burned off in the blast
Disillusion tore off his wings, and when he stepped outside
Into childhood's end, and the moon was so bright
It looked like a white hole punched through the cape of night
But from that moment forth a moon
Was just a moon and a star was just a star
And nothing more
And the morning came, and the sun did rise
But he was trapped in the corridors where it spent the night
And he could not, or he would not hear our cries
Take everything, break everything, fake everything, fuck everything
It's all nothing if you want, but that's not what I want
I'd give anything to see you feel again once more
Stand alone
Beside you
Listening for a sign of life inside you
Suffering some gift of God
Pursuing, haunting you
Yes, life is sour when you hit the ground
Moments wasted, love gone foul
However sweet the fruit, the prickly skin, the bitter core
And nausea for dessert
Take everything, break everything, fake everything, fuck everything
When you've been broken, you've been brought low
You want to smash everything, those who still care most of all
And I see the witches burning in your eyes
But they're not the ones who sold you these lies
We're not the ones who bound your hands
And turned the spears in your side
(May the kings all drown in their blood of their conquests
May the flags all die at the top of their poles
May the gluttons be impaled upon the ribs of the starving
And the priests all sell their souls
May the dreamers all awaken in a world that is empty
May the lovers betray and be betrayed
May the poets all choke on their sweet lies
And bow down before their fates
May the seekers wander lost through the valleys and the deserts
And lay down to sleep upon stones
May the sick flourish and the healthy be afflicted
And may rats fight over the bones
May hate rule pitilessly over the world of the damned
Where rivers cease to run
Let the sun set forever on this broken heartland
Let the kingdom come)
Bring me hearts i'll break them
Give me poisons i'll take them
If i could trade this ache
For indifference
All fucked up with bitterness
All fucked up
Take everything, break everything, fake everything, fuck everything
Heart as black as sun
On the day that will come when it never rises again
And where do you go when you've lost your way?
Inside, and everywhere you turn it's the same
Where do you go when there's no where to go?
You froze in your tracks, something broke and you
Gave up
If you want to live then live
Dance sing scream until your lungs bleed
Lift us up, lift us up
And if you want to die, die then
Plunge deep into hell
With me clasped tight in your embrace
And well make an end to all this
But you dont want to live or die, do you?
And it makes me want to cry
An ocean of tears to flow through these filthy streets
Stained with so many years
Of smothered hopes and desired denied
The faceless masses, paralyzed
To drown all we are, all we've ever been
Better cease to exist, than endure like this
And set you free
You and all your kind
To be free in death, if not in life
But the rest is secrets, silence now
If night has fallen, sleep well
The rest is silence, sleep well
If night has fallen, sleep well
Sleep well
