Shot to the skull or a strike to the brain As you withdraw, you give death a bad name Can you be stopped, or can evil be slain? Is there something to be lost to surrender the pain?
You're just a shade of something betrayed Watch as you fade into the reservoir Can you exist, shade of the oculist No consciousness, less than a metaphor
What was once dead is now coming for you The television said it's the right thing to do
Give me a name more than a flame Can it contain more than a metaphor? Show me your face give it some breathing space Feel my embrace, empty the reservoir
Was it for profit or was it for gain You gave it your all, you gave life a bad name
Sentries trembling voices assembling Nothing resembling what it had been before Contamination death to America Reanimation what are you waiting for
Give me a name more than a flame Can it contain more than a metaphor? Show me your face give it some breathing space Feel my embrace, empty the reservoir
Shot to the skull or a strike to the brain The cadaver on the cross, you give love a bad name Can you explain all our divided pain What still remains after the rigor mortise Poured gasoline ghost in a dead machine God save the queen, lessons and metaphors
Hung from a tree, edge of the canopy All this debris, signals and semaphores Round them all up, drink from the holy cup Battered in blood, what are you waiting for?
Jump from the fire into the frying pan Voice of the choir now you are born again Gathered in song calling all next of kin Can do no wrong, perfect American
Follow your dreams into the black and white Anthropocene, live it up, give a fight Shot to the heart, God bless America Failed from the start, what are you waiting for? What are you waiting for? What are you waiting for? What are you waiting for?
