And on that day they'll tell you

That life hung on with no clue

The warning signs were all just missed or shattered down

So it goes

The kings all failed to tell us

The madmen failed to sell us

Of what would then befall the only life we know



When they're burning signal fires

To guide us to the fields

We're building funeral pyres

They all commit a final appeal



The city lines are down

The kerosene's run out

The fact surreal

We relied upon

I shed the sun clean skin

And start to feel again

Cuz all the shoulders I wish to cry on gone



The paranoia gripped us

Berate and then consume us

The panic set in like a cancer to our hearts

Spreading through

We've been on fire like genius

I pray for god to save us

There was no answer, though

Disease tore us apart

We left bodies in the fields

So numb that we forgot how to feel



The city lines are down

The kerosene's run out

The fact surreal

We relied upon

I shed the sun clean skin

And start to feel again

Cuz all the shoulders I wish to cry on gone



He looked at the fields, and then his hands

All I need is what I have

Then fell a tear of happiness

Oh...

She watched it all crumble away

Is this the end of yesterday?

"Lord, I hope so" is all he said

All I've got are the organs

All I've got are the (?)

And as we go forth

I pray we'll remember this day



Oh, we relied on now



The city lines are down

The kerosene's run out

The fact surreal

We relied upon

I shed the sun clean skin

And start to feel again

With no more shoulders, shoulders to cry on now



No more, no more

No more, no more

No more, no more

The weight that we once felt is gone
