"The Plague" lyrics

"The Plague"

The bodies still litter the plain
The water's been tinted with stains
Your God is indifferent to pain
You all think you're different
You're not all that different
All of us fit in a grave
The bodies still litter the plain
The water's been tinted with stains
Your God is indifferent to pain
You all think your different
You're not all that different
All of us fit in a grave

Watch how I kill what I hate
The audience filled with the plague, again
Monuments built in their name, again
Toxins instilled in their brains, feeling ashamed
Since all you loved still burned to ashes
We reassembled and turned to statues
Gargoyles stayed perched on chapels
Search a surface immersed in blackness
Tongues are tungsten lungs are sunk in
A hunger lingers when stomach hums hymns
To summon something, succumb to numb
Running from the glum ribs drums to sunsets
Dead, says the little voice in your head
So you wrote it all with poisonous lead
Protocol for the fall, White Dawn
Where sequoias won't rest, blood drawn
From an oil-struck chest
A world in division, war of attrition
We're all so deficient, where are the victims?
Worship the warship that wards off the spirits
Sometimes reality's worse than the fear is

The bodies still litter the plain
The water's been tinted with stains
Your God is indifferent to pain
You all think you're different
You're not all that different
All of us fit in a grave
The bodies still litter the plain
The water's been tinted with stains
Your God is indifferent to pain
You all think your different
You're not all that different
All of us fit in a grave

Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt

Bloody handprints decorate my room
I'll never forsake my tomb
It's a cave I was chased into
It's okay when I break in two
When I crave to escape this gloom
Encased in doom with the craven few
Cagey in a cage so the Raven flew
Even if I suffocate from tasting fumes
Stay strained in the brain til the grave
We don't stay in bloom

Black Plague
Ring Around The Rosie pockets full of lint
Black Plague
Fingers round a 40 watch me roll a spliff
Black Plague
If you stay sane, you'll be no better than a carcass with medicated cold eyes
If you make waves you'll be the center of a target, ready, aim, bullseye

Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt

Black Plague, Black Plague
Black Plague, Black Plague
Birth to the ashtray, life in the fast lane
Look at what the crows dragged in, ayy
Black Plague, Black Plague
Black Plague, Black Plague
Birth to the ashtray, life in the fast lane
Look at what the crows dragged in, ayy

Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
Do as thou wilt til the flowers wilt
