The Last Survivors

They pulled the wool over your eyes
Made you dance naked in the spotlight
They held their guns up to smoke the skies
Called it art
Put you up on a pedestal

It's hard to look direct in your eyes
It's like trying to spot a ghost in a fire
No matter how many souls you feast
You know you'll never feed your desires

Everybody's talking to the last survivors
Who had to breath in the ocean spray
I think it's time we left them to their own devices
Stop tormenting lives for your own sick gain

I know in just a day you can't change the way you feel
But keep yourself on track it'll be okay

You feel it coursing through your bloodstream
You curse at trees
Inflated head of steam
You see those egg shells you walk on
Kick them away cos they were laid by enemies

There's a toxic karma coming
See the headlight reptiles running
There's a toxic karma coming
Head for the lights

Everybody's talking to the last survivors
Who had to breath in the dust plume air
I think it's time we left them to their own devices
Stop tormenting lives pretending like you care

I know in just a day you can't change the way you feel
But keep yourself on track it'll be okay

Dear help
I wrote you this letter
I get suffocated somehow they feel better
It's tough luck and a hard pill to take
To realise all they want's for you to fade away
Dear help
It's been months since the letter
Why did it come back with return to sender?

Everybody's talking to the last survivors
Who had to breath in the ocean spray
I think it's time we left them to their own devices
Stop tormenting lives pretending like you care

I know in just a day you can't change the way you feel
But keep yourself on track it'll be okay

Dear help
I understood the letter
I got rid of evil
I returned to sender
