歌词

[00:07.25] An address to the golden door
[00:10.34] I was strumming on a stone again
[00:13.63] Pulling teeth from the pimps of gore
[00:16.19] When hatched a tragic opera in my mind
[00:20.18] And it told of a new design in which every soul is duty bound
[00:26.57] To uphold all the statutes of boredom
[00:31.26] Therein lies the fatal flaw of the red age
[00:33.83] Because it was nothing like we'd ever dreamt
[00:35.94] Or lust for life had gone away with the rent we hated
[00:39.38] And becase it made no money
[00:41.52] Nobody saved no one's life this time
[00:47.65] So we burned all our uniforms
[00:50.96] And let nature take it's course again
[00:54.16] And the big onese just eat all the little ones
[00:57.31] That sends us back to the drawing board
[01:11.80] In my darkest hours
[01:14.75] We have all asked for some
[01:18.21] Angel to come
[01:21.39] Sprinkle his dust all around
[01:25.39] But all our crying voices they can't turn it around
[01:31.35] And you've had some crazy conversations of your own
[01:46.85] We've got rules and maps and guns in our backs
[01:50.09] But we still can't just behave ourselves
[01:53.87] Even if to save our own lives
[01:56.28] So says I:
[01:57.40] We are a brutal kind
[02:12.84] 'Cause this is nothing like we'd ever dreamt
[02:15.57] Tell Sir Thomas More we've got another failed attempt
[02:19.16] 'Cause if it makes them money
[02:20.99] They might just give you life this time
