"The Execution Of All Things" lyrics
"The Execution Of All Things"
Soldiers, come quickly
I feel the earth beneath my feet
I'm feeling badly, it's not an attempt at decency
And if you're well off, well, then I'm happy some for you
But I'd rather not celebrate my defeat
And humiliation here with you
Someone, come quickly
This place was built for moving out
Leave behind buildings, the city planners got mapped out
Bring with you history and make your hard earned feast
Then we'll go to Omaha to work and exploit
The booming music scene
And humility
And we've been talking all night
Oh God, come quickly
The execution of all things
Let's start with the bears and the air
And mountains, rivers and streams
Then we'll murder what matters to you
And move on to your neighbors and kids
Crush all hopes of happiness with disease
'Cause of what you did
And lastly you're all alone with nothing left but sleep
But sleep never comes to you
It's the guilt and forever wakefulness of the weak
It's just you and me
The execution of all things
The execution of all things
The execution of all things

I quietly tied all my guts into knots.
Gave up on trying to make them,

Mirah - "Cold Cold Water" I saddled up my pony right
And rode into the ghostly night
It was wide, wide open, wide, wide open

Nana Grizol - "Circles 'Round The Moon" Circles 'round the moon
Is this why city lights feel so awful?
It should be unlawful
To live where you can't see the stars
