Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When the ending comes, is it gonna run at us like a wild-eyed animal?
A foreign disease washed up on the beach
A dagger plunged from out of the shadows
[Verse 2]
A cosmic grief beyond all comprehension
All good laid low by outside evil
Against belief, a riot in the streets
A giant beast turning mountains into black holes
[Verse 3]
Fiction
Fiction
[Verse 4]
No, none of that rolling in your heads
Reality has a far duller edge
Everybody's hunted with a smile
Being processed by the boys
[Verse 5]
They got the job when they came back to town
Why not let them earn a living?
Fill out the form, download the app, submit your face into the scanner
Everybody's hunted with a smile
Being processed by the boys
[Verse 6]
In their tatterdemalion uniforms, they look so nice
Tattoos of their children, so cool, so nice
This time will be gentle enough, gentle enough
This time will be gentle enough, gentle enough
Next time will be different, different
Next time will be different, so cool, so nice
They'll be gentle enough, gentle enough
They'll be gentle enough, gentle enough
