Microdeath Softstar - завершающая песня альбома Doomsday Afternoon
The bringer of the future casts a shadow, watch it grow He extends a single finger 'cause there's only one way to go And the watchers on the sidelines, polite to a tee Like contestants on TV, they are you - they are me
So come round all you faithful, watch him gather up the gold When he's got the lot he lingers, just to savour what he has sold And the mesmerized are silent, too stunned to believe What their eyes have finally recieved This is not a bad dream
Come now and witness, time to behold All we have planted has sprouted and grown
Was it enough for you? Did it please you? Let the poison through Was it enough for you? No perfume Let the stench come through
If you catch them at the station, ask them how they feel When the cradle of creation is crushed under the wheels
Do not speak, oh do not speak, 'cause nothing's left but words to reap And what we sowed is ours to keep - good day to everyone Do not speak, oh do not speak, the words were lies, our will was weak Lemmings poised to take the leap - good day to everyone
I'd like to say it's over and we will be okay I'd like to say it's over and that you feel the same
Once upon a time there was some writing on the wall we all ignored Until the time when there was war and feasts or famine at our door Once upon a time there was a line that we had drawn we wouldn't cross 'Cause it was wrong, but lines are bendable and seldom very long
Fear leaves a trace of something stale A wasteland of memory of how we failed All we need is time, all we need is time But time's too damn unkind
