Lyrics Destroyer of Worlds - Burning Love

Destroyer of Worlds

What thou hath wrought with these two hands,
the great undoing of every man
The toil of fourteen billion years snuffed out in a flash
They watched the birth with faith devout
They cut the cord and locked you out
She’s everybody’s baby now — and baby, it’s gonna crash.
A big bang that the gods could see.
The fix is in, the Prime Mover is out.
We don’t need your sun no more,
we’ve got 10 000 suns down here.
Prometheus in a downward slide,
Hiroshima’s sons want to know why
But they changed the locks & won’t take your calls
You can’t do these ghosts no good at all.
Now I Am Become Death
I had nine lives when I got to this town
and God only knows what it’s down to now
But spare the bomb and spoil the child
(I tried to take it back).
He drops his eyes and leans in tight
with words to echo all your nights.
At the first flash of the blinding lights, he says:
«We're all sons of bitches now.»
Always.
You’re a sinking sun.
You’re a setting sun.
The lucky one.
