"The Collapse" lyrics
Everyone kept dancing
While it was all collapsing
The warning lights were flashing
But they just found it dazzling
Drowning out the answers
That no one felt like asking
The sun went down بسم الل...
You see the tyrants buckle when their lies start to crumble
The high turn humble when their empire tumble
The bone-chilling condition war criminal villain
Their pronouns are pronounced as chosen and victim
The bombs in the billions to rain on the children
The holy land built on mass graves you're filling
The poets and the singers got stories in their spirit
Owners in the business oppose it when they fear it
But the trees don't forget it the breeze blow the message
The rivers and seas hold the image
The tears on our cheeks and the beards hold the sweetest little reem
Ya Philistine repeated in our dreams
When the time turn timeless the meek finally speak
Oppressors beg the fire to cease
The hearts go blind so the eyes go to sleep
And who's peeping the ruins that you're seeing that's you in that museum
Can you feel it
Everyone kept dancing
While it was all collapsing
The warning lights were flashing
But they just found it dazzling
Drowning out the answers
That no one felt like asking
The sun went down بسم الل...
They battled and oppressed each other where they rest
The weak ones left for better dwellings and they welcomed them as guests
But love wasn't present in their breast
They only knew the power to devour and possess
They raided and invaded their spaces and their flesh
Called them terrorists when they resist
Their own violence they called defense
Fear was at the center of their lens
So the more people they kill the more horrified they'd get
The brave broke ranks in the name of the sacred
They quickly erased and accused em of self-hatred
The circus got crackin a million-dollar attraction
Flickering and flashing to deliver the distractions
Opium was the religion of the masses
So they were too trashed to see the pillars that were cracking
God counts actions when the math ain't mathing
They lit their own match and started dancing in the ashes
Everyone kept dancing
While it was all collapsing
The warning lights were flashing
But they just found it dazzling
Drowning out the answers
That no one felt like asking
The sun went down بسم الل...
While it was all collapsing
The warning lights were flashing
But they just found it dazzling
Drowning out the answers
That no one felt like asking
The sun went down بسم الل...
You see the tyrants buckle when their lies start to crumble
The high turn humble when their empire tumble
The bone-chilling condition war criminal villain
Their pronouns are pronounced as chosen and victim
The bombs in the billions to rain on the children
The holy land built on mass graves you're filling
The poets and the singers got stories in their spirit
Owners in the business oppose it when they fear it
But the trees don't forget it the breeze blow the message
The rivers and seas hold the image
The tears on our cheeks and the beards hold the sweetest little reem
Ya Philistine repeated in our dreams
When the time turn timeless the meek finally speak
Oppressors beg the fire to cease
The hearts go blind so the eyes go to sleep
And who's peeping the ruins that you're seeing that's you in that museum
