Requiem
This fire's growing stronger as it changes direction
(I can't feel my arm)
As animals secretly wish our destruction
(They watch and wait)
The city we've abandoned burns away in the distance
(We are no one)
Like stray dogs left behind to wait
For dead masters, long gone
Behold the fields of fire as they cleanse our infection
(In cold grey love)
Now smoke and suffocation be the peace that you offer
(The lonely one)
California dreamers and skeletons wonder
(In lithium)
Like gasoline and crucifix
Roman candles and the fourth of July
On Black Friday we dance, we play
The tanks roll out and the lovers play
The sun is gone and the moon is high
The wolves will eat and the wolves will die
Saint Francis, you've gone away
You've stuck us here with your bills to pay
No words are left for a pretty song
About how we lived and we got it wrong
(I can't feel my arm)
As animals secretly wish our destruction
(They watch and wait)
The city we've abandoned burns away in the distance
(We are no one)
Like stray dogs left behind to wait
For dead masters, long gone
Behold the fields of fire as they cleanse our infection
(In cold grey love)
Now smoke and suffocation be the peace that you offer
(The lonely one)
California dreamers and skeletons wonder
(In lithium)
Like gasoline and crucifix
Roman candles and the fourth of July
On Black Friday we dance, we play
The tanks roll out and the lovers play
The sun is gone and the moon is high
The wolves will eat and the wolves will die
Saint Francis, you've gone away
You've stuck us here with your bills to pay
No words are left for a pretty song
About how we lived and we got it wrong
