The Unbridgeable Chasm |
| These images of the television heads |
| Spouting promises that disappear in days |
| Move and shift as we cross the Styx |
| And the carnival slips out of town |
| Past ideas never did us anything |
| The rolling stone of progress flattened us |
| We move and shift as the Rubicon laps |
| At the fast of the masses that never return |
| You quench your thirst with ashes |
| You plant your seeds in sand |
| And watch as weeds devour |
| You pride these institutions that glorify disease |
| One thousand knives have stabbed |
| The backs of those you’ve deceived |
| You can’t get there from here |
| The beaten path’s a dead end road |
| Burning bridges coming down again |
| We hope and pray for a leader to come |
| Our new world man realized |
| Is the jackal enthroned with his suit and phone? |
| The financial demon’s arrived |
| Hype and praise for the avaricious way |
| All sacrifices must be made |
| Get in line and put the noose on your neck |
| There’s plenty of rope for us all |
| You think you make the difference |
| Yet you ingest their gruel |
| And reek with stench of profit |
| You pride these institutions that glorify disease |
| One thousand knives have stabbed |
| The backs of those you’ve deceived |
| You can’t get there from here |
| The beaten path’s a dead end road |
| Burning bridges coming down again |
| The crowd is shifting the target’s getting closer |
| The bastard smiles with his sinister grin, yeah |
| It’s retribution, no mercy ever given |
| The wolf is howling as the sheep devour |
