lyrics

We're the chain-gang of a miserable lie.
We’re never conscious cause we’re always high.

We don’t care, we see no evil.
We don’t listen, we’ve got a fever.
You are way too much like me.
Distracted and suicidal.
You know where we gonna be
before the sun hits the marble.

Drug me, darling! Drug me, love!
Listen to the beat of a drum.
Let the blood-rush tear your teeth off

Let it go. And let it run.
Listen to the beat of a drum
rumbling to unrestful nation

that we die at the speed of light
and the chain-gang of a lie
at astounding overload
crashes into arms of mine

And the rings of a golden look
shatter in a morning sun
And the rings of a golden look
shatter in a morning sun
shatter in a morning sun

We don’t care, we see no evil.
We don’t listen, we’ve got a fever.

But your pupils tighten fast
and you look looses its sparkle
as the sun hits the marble ground
your breath is lost, your skin’s got dunkle.

Shards of gold all over room
sharp as knives and shiny
a broken chain of trust
which seems to be now grimy.
Spellbound by the morning moment
I am losing a sense of time
and when I hold back reins of omen
you are gone, for never mine.
