| We wrote these plans, took the order
|
| The architecture, and followed them to the end
|
| Until the gears ground cold and relentless
|
| There was no remorse
|
| We had none, we kept on with no trace of a regret
|
| There was no remorse
|
| (I never saw any blood)
|
| No soul for the body
|
| Watch them turn her scab covered skin into
|
| Stone, like a coal in the
|
| Sky, searching for the
|
| Dawn, for the last time
|
| Bloated with white eyes wide
|
| We’ve come to an understanding
|
| You lose, I profit
|
| High noon and there ain’t no secrets
|
| No more excuses
|
| Now our number’s up, let them
|
| Lead us by the throat now
|
| Just smile while the rope pulls tighter, tighter
|
| Guilty is an understatement
|
| The hourglass is never right side up
|
| And all the time we try to tear the script up
|
| Forgetting all the sour for the sweet
|
| The paragraph has never been so empty
|
| The lifeless test tube
|
| The mother dies with infant in arms
|
| The lifeless test tube, look what she’s done
|
| Evolution gave us a clock that’s always winding down
|
