Yearn, let it burn
Cover up the death you spurn
Learn what you earn
Sober up and watch it turn, turn
Turn. On your heel
Steal and run ‘til you don’t feel
Keel as you reel
Heed the warning of the wheel
Say that this will be our last chance to be safe
Sign away everything
Our pursuit is just beyond this gate
You can look back and stay that way
I won’t be there so I’ll
Take my time, take my time to
Drink from the river
Where knowing flows
And what’s flowing knows
Speed up the wheel and its churning grows
Amidst crowing ghosts
Please don’t read between the lines
These will rip into the sky
These rules are meant to be changed
The future gives it away
Yearn, let it burn
Cover up the death you spurn
Learn what you earn
Sober up and watch it turn, turn
Turn. On your heel
Steal and run ‘til you don’t feel
Keel as you reel
Heed the warning of the wheel
And go until it breaks
I don’t want to carry it away
Can we get away?
Stay low to the ground
Ignore the sound of
The mountains cracking down
All around
Feel the earth it trembles
As it crumbles
Protect these symbols we’ve assembled
This will all be worth it
All the suffering on the surface
To be all that we sought
But this is the last chance to be safe
We know enough to span a life
Let’s trust my eyes
I don’t want to carry it away
Can we get away?
Stay low to the ground
Can’t we be afraid of all the things to come?
‘Cause I don’t want to be the one to claim the ashes when they burn
I have no desire to see what happens when you press your pressure
Run
Faster, faster
Discuss this after disaster strikes on me
I’ll suture your future cuts to suit your
Need to survive this
You need to survive this
So go now
Get out
Before I
Before I know
Temptress, speak to me
You’re bound on the ground of your secrecy
The tempest to set you free
Has drowned out the sound of machinery
Empress, queen of thieves
Your crown is a town founded by hounds and eaves dropped
As the hammer hit the spoke your words were seeds, crops
For someone else to reap
And I don’t want to carry it away
Can we get away?
Carry it away
Can we get away?
