The promise of forever Tastes heavy on my tongue The lucky country severed from itself When we were young Now the fires ever-raging Would steal this promise from her sons While her daughters run in fear Between the station and their homes The serpent dances over From one hole into the next But when the bodies all dry up Will the water spill from us instead? Are you with us? You can't sleep through this, there will be nothing left By the time that you accept That we're on fire The midnight oil spills out from the urn But all our beds are damned to burn away Hey, you Think we could talk about it? Another lie, another excuse It's just our lives you're playing with Hey, you Is now a good time for you to admit it? Take the fall You sold our future You killed us all O servant of greed, you cover your tracks (And do you see now the master you serve?) You can't keep us down, we'll take it all back (The god of skin cancer, watch as skies burn) O servant of greed, you cover your tracks You can't keep us down, you can't keep us down You can't keep us down, you can't keep us down Are you with us? You can't sleep through this, there will be nothing left By the time that you accept That we're on fire The midnight oil spills out from the urn But all our beds are damned to burn away
