Crocodile Tears

Waking into now
Looking at all the promises we didn't keep
They're crawling back to bed, falling back to sleep
Enter the new now
They're drowning in shallows thinking they're so deep
Then crawling back to bed, falling back to sleep
How did you not know we were
Flooring it but in reverse this whole time?
Back to old times

Aren't we in quick decay
While they're having a ball now?
Small fingers misbehave
And we're left with the fallout
It's all going to shit, be safe
But "safe" got us here in the first place

Water is rising
But up in their ivory towers, they can't hear a peep
They're crawling back to bed, falling back to sleep
Hold on, horizon
The sun is not coming up, it took a flying leap
It's crawling back to bed, falling back to sleep
How did you not see the dark
Settling in President's Park this whole time?
We'll be dead in no time

Aren't we in quick decay
While they're having a ball now?
Small fingers misbehave
And we're left with the fallout
It's all going to shit, be safe
But "safe" got us here in the first place

The bigger the tower, the harder it falls
The bigger the tower, the harder it falls
The bigger the tower, the harder it falls
The bigger the tower, the harder it falls
The bigger the tower, the harder it falls
The bigger the tower, the harder it falls
The bigger the tower, the harder it falls
The bigger the tower, the harder it falls
Fuck it!

All of your heroes, where are they now?
All those you worshiped let you down
Well, welcome to the world where no one should be on a pedestal
Men under a microscope are never so incredible
All of your stars fell into the ground

Your idols are disgustingly rich
Your cult of white billionaires makes me sick
Well, your Donalds and your Joes, they never cared about you anyway
Mansions never stand without foundations built on many graves
Those selfish people don't deserve shit

The bigger the tower, the harder it falls
The blood on the border wears holes in the wall
Early to bed and early to grave
Land of deceived and the home of depraved
The bigger the tower, the harder it falls
The blood on the border wears holes in the wall
Early to bed and early to grave
Land of deceived and the home of depraved

Aren't we in quick decay
While they're having a ball now?
Small fingers misbehave
And we're left with the fallout
It's all going to shit, be safe
But "safe" got us here in the first place

Aren't we in quick decay
While they're having a ball now?
Small fingers misbehave
And we're left with the fallout
It's all going to shit, be safe
But "safe" got us here in the first place
