All the World Drops Dead
From a distance far beyond the brightest stars
They warned us of the imminent wars
One by one they set us apart
And there she stood
Among the cheering crowds
Aiming for my desperate heart
A lonely impulse of delight
Fearless to this tumult in the clouds
Dance around the tree of life
I close my eyes
And all the world drops dead
She should have boldly kissed
Satan's drones instead
Whispering from their alien graves
Saga's that never been told
Symbols reaching for the ears of the slaves
Delivered by the Tongues of Gold
Needles reaching deep inside our silly brains
Then shipped of to the icy plains
Extracting thoughts of fear and hope
Who is still trying to cope
Dance around the tree of life
I close my eyes
And all the world drops dead
She should have boldly kissed
Satan's drones instead
At the centre of the hive
The Queen wonders why
If there's purpose in life
Should we stay and strive
Or let them slowly die
The stars are fading out
In blurry blue and red
When they made you up
Deep inside your head
Moonstruck she stung me
Right through my lonely heart
Our arms still waving
And our lips silently apart
Dance around the tree of life
I close my eyes
And all the world drops dead
She should have boldly kissed
Satan's drones instead
At the centre of the hive
The Queen wonders why
If there's purpose in life
Should we stay and strive
Or let them slowly die
They warned us of the imminent wars
One by one they set us apart
And there she stood
Among the cheering crowds
Aiming for my desperate heart
A lonely impulse of delight
Fearless to this tumult in the clouds
Dance around the tree of life
I close my eyes
And all the world drops dead
She should have boldly kissed
Satan's drones instead
Whispering from their alien graves
Saga's that never been told
Symbols reaching for the ears of the slaves
Delivered by the Tongues of Gold
Needles reaching deep inside our silly brains
Then shipped of to the icy plains
Extracting thoughts of fear and hope
Who is still trying to cope
Dance around the tree of life
I close my eyes
And all the world drops dead
She should have boldly kissed
Satan's drones instead
At the centre of the hive
The Queen wonders why
If there's purpose in life
Should we stay and strive
Or let them slowly die
The stars are fading out
In blurry blue and red
When they made you up
Deep inside your head
Moonstruck she stung me
Right through my lonely heart
Our arms still waving
And our lips silently apart
Dance around the tree of life
I close my eyes
And all the world drops dead
She should have boldly kissed
Satan's drones instead
At the centre of the hive
The Queen wonders why
If there's purpose in life
Should we stay and strive
Or let them slowly die
