Our fathers can hardly understand us anymore.
|
Abandon your straightened thoughts.
|
Forget the jewelers and their priceless songs.
|
|
Can¡¯t you hear yourselves disappearing into the arms of mother/father?
|
|
Keep your immature pretensions, your love-affair affections to yourselves.
|
Behind my back my elitist die has been cast down upon the unsuspecting masses.
|
Forgive them, lord, for they know what they do.
|
|
Are you going deaf?
|
|
I will bite off the hand that force-feeds me.
|
Free me¡¦ Feed me.
|
|
I walk silently past the ballroom the commotion.
|
I don¡¯t know these dances, I am an Old Romantic.
|
I sing the old songs, I bleed the old blood.
|
Would you want to waltz with me?
|
|
Can¡¯t you hear me screaming until my throat is raw?
|
Until Hell freezes
|
Over
|
My dead body will I let the Ravens reign down upon us,
|
Always blinding with their refuse and shame.
|
|
You¡¯ll have to pry their words from my cold dead lips.
|
|
There¡¯s a storm-a-brewin¡¯, the smell is intoxicating.
|
We¡¯re sick, so sick of this town.
|
Raze it to the heavens,
|
Burn it to the fucking ground.
