I was the brains behind this process
The questions disappear and the logic is offset
And how the fuck can you buy your own thoughts
When they’re sold to you by every bad idea you’ve fought?
And it won’t always be this way
By the time it goes to shit we’ll be at heaven’s gates
But for now we indulge, for now we’re ok While we ignore the consequence that our children have to pay
Just make sure we stay terrified
We need to sate our fucking fear and it’s feeding time
The homeland security system just went apeshit
But I can’t recall the code so I’ll hide in my basement
And it won’t always be this way
By the time it goes to shit we’ll be at heaven’s gates
Everything we’ve ever discovered, everything we’ve accomplished
Every disease we’ve cured, every family we’ve torn apart
Every life we’ve created, every god we’ve ever feared
Every phallic monument constructed: it’s just a fraction of a millisecond
In time the sun will expand and heat the earth until the oceans turn to barren
land
The sky will be red when our god is near
And we’ll burn the fuck away like we were never here
And it will never again be this way
And now we find ourselves standing in front of hell’s gates
But for now we indulge, for now we’re ok While we ignore the consequence that our children have to pay
Our children will pay
