lyrics
With a silver tongue and crystal eyes you'll never want to say goodbye. See how bright his aura shines through the clouds of smoke and the dust and flies.
And so we're told the time is close, but the saviour died of an overdose.
We ate his flesh and we sold his bones but he didn't come back. Now we're all alone.
Save your soul or save your breath, 'cause no-one knows what happens next.
Invest yourself in the god we made, and wonder if you've been betrayed.
A fleeting glimpse, a change of heart; pause and you'll be torn apart.
We have passed the golden time; now is the age of our decline.
Another way we cannot see or fight our own autonomy. We engineered the end of time as was the point of our design.
Sink into this holy state; no other life for you awaits.
Take your time, you're here to stay; you'll learn to embrace decay.
And so we're told the time is close, but the saviour died of an overdose.
We ate his flesh and we sold his bones but he didn't come back. Now we're all alone.
Save your soul or save your breath, 'cause no-one knows what happens next.
Invest yourself in the god we made, and wonder if you've been betrayed.
A fleeting glimpse, a change of heart; pause and you'll be torn apart.
We have passed the golden time; now is the age of our decline.
Another way we cannot see or fight our own autonomy. We engineered the end of time as was the point of our design.
Sink into this holy state; no other life for you awaits.
Take your time, you're here to stay; you'll learn to embrace decay.
