Sarcophagus

Your lives are quiet with the hate that you sow
And you keep hold of all your angels, cast in the snow
On every street corner, you hear, oh, you hear
A meticulous illusion of a cheer, oh how they cheer

Don't turn your back on me now
Or you make wake to find
You lost something human somehow

Don't breathe, I beg
Just let this end
You wrecked our pride
Our hope is dead

Your eyes are careful with the gaze they bestow
And you keep so close to home, oh, closer than we know
By thinking in your terms of Us and Them
I've found the worst for you is yet to come again

Don't turn your back on me now
Or you make wake to find
You lost something human somehow

Don't breathe, I beg
Just let this end
You wrecked our pride
Our hope is dead

Don't meet our eyes
Keep draped your heads
We're opening your
Sarcophagus
