lyrics
the world collapses and the rats
are leaving the sinking ship
the creature you fed got beyond control
too late to get a grip on it
now that the flood is coming
all hell’s breaking lose
everything you worked for
is working against you
this betrayal is breaking you
everything you regard to be self-evident
ends up in smoke
this emptiness eats you up
but it’s everything you got
you can’t hide behind these lies
or sham perfection
a plastic smile or a garden fence
cause you can’t hide from yourself
we dance on the ashes of burned empires
part of history: rise & fall
right now
you don’t know what to do
future dreams, acquired property
your world collapses at a single blow
nothing’s left, you’ve lost it all
all the aces that you’ve hold
a drowning man clutching at a straw
a broken man dropping into free fall
