Reptile |
We share the tale, another boy amongst the masses |
His name was Billy and he liked to get high |
A normal guy until the green-skin apocalypse |
A do or die |
There must be something in the water (besides fluoride and shit) |
Where he lie, where he lie |
He threw that gaping brain asunder |
When he realized, when he realized |
It’s coming down! |
We’ve sown thrones and brought the kings down to knees |
Hello, here we are, salutations |
And every day that you wake is a gift that you take from the gods |
That’s right! |
You came from the trees and we alter the genes |
Here you are |
All you fuck with is wages |
You had the day but you pissed it away |
I think it’s time that we show our ways! |
Now we shed that violence all over |
Let mayhem in the streets |
From the mountain top to oceans |
We own your every need |
It’s coming down! |
With every breath that we take, we can hear that sound |
Somebody needs a reaction to stay on the ground |
With every breath that we take, we can hear that sound |
A green-skin apocalypse |
A do or die |
So Billy heeds the call of fathers |
Release high |
Through these eyes |
Embraces the chi and he praises the weeds |
Holding out for the day he can face them |
And every day that he trains is a slap in the face to the gods |
God damn |
Shutting out politics |
Viewing beings as equals |
Ain’t it funny how that makes sense? |
You had the floor, but you gave it a bore |
Now it’s equal |
Can we clean that slate? |
Now shed that violence all over |
Let mayhem in the streets |
From mountain top to oceans, we own your every need |
It’s coming down! |
Somebody needs a reaction to stay on the ground |
It’s coming down! |
Follow a trail of the ones who bleed the masses |
Follow behind the reptilian eyes |
A normal day in the green-skin apocalypse |
A do or die |
There must be something in the water |
Where he lie, where he lie |
He threw that gaping brain asunder |
When he realized, when he realized |
National alliance and he leads the fight |
No class, no race, just fucking violence in their eyes |
A plan for human survival takes to flight |
The good that’s left and all we cherish stands to die |
Is this the end of all we know? |
They all float |
Is this the end of all we know? |
Wasted our lives for what? |
Float away |
Do we feed the reaction? |
Do we stay? |
Do we all float away? |
Do you think you know who you are? |
Did you think you had it all worked out well? |
And who could believe… those dead-eyed soldiers |
Red sky, rain fall |
The winter beams no beauty |
Just cold-eyed monsters and bare branches |
You can wail to the moon, but that’ll just make things worse |
They see you |
They see me |
They see all |
No children in the streets |
Where do they play when freedom here has been revoked? |
The ground which all their fathers soaked |
No medicine |
The scarcity of nourishment is evident |
And where’s our god? |
Have we seen that side of heaven yet? |
No |
Rich, poor |
Clutching to their sheets in horror |
Is there an answer? |
No. |
Is there somebody who can take away all the present dismay? |
Bury the light |
Pray through night |
Mayhem in the streets |
No order |
Is there an answer? |
No. |
Is there somebody who can take away all the present dismay? |
Bury the light |
Pray through night |
You’ve buried that, buried that light |
Now pray through night |
What has come down is littered all around in your sight |
It’s littered in your sight |
The claim they stake |
A land from us they take |
The claim they stake, they stake |
A land from us they take, they take |
The craft he shakes |
A race within his wake |
Victory alone became his above the soil we know |
A grave is laid |
A man within his cage |
Victory alone became his down in the soil he owns |
Soil we know becomes our own home |
Soil we know becomes our own home |
Now we’re staring at the ground together |
This is not the first time nor the last time |
Soil we know becomes our own home |
(Now we’re staring at the ground together.) |
Now we’re staring at the ground together |
Soil we own becomes ours |
Order back in what we know |
Soil we own becomes ours |
Now one with the soil we own |
Soil we own becomes ours |
Order back in what we know |
Soil we own becomes ours |
Now one with the soil we own |
Soil we own |
