Lyrics

"This is a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. The broadcasters of your area, in voluntary cooperation with federal state and local authorities, have developed this system to keep you in the event of an emergency. If this had been an actual emergency, the attention signal, which you just heard..."
Lights shine from the burning faces
I don't care if it blinds me
Shadows gesture me for panic
But there's never anywhere to fear
Diet from the media sized rages
Never to miss the wicked ways
Not so easy to get fooled (Not so easy to get fooled)
By emergency broadcast rule
It's a relapse, a point of collapse
God bless my soul
It's up to you to go now
And crawl on all fours
Another message attempt to fuck us again
Rejection, all of what is said
This only a test
This only a test
This lie is only a test
This only a test
This only a test
This lie is only a test
Listen to only what's discord
Like the sting of razor sharp glass
Enjoy the scene of torches burning
Laugh at a poisoned gasp
Sit and watch windows, the plodding
Flames lick a dozen stars
Discredit any hopeful discerning
Rejoice the thought of future scars
It's a relapse, a point of collapse
God bless my soul
It's up to you to go now
And crawl on all fours
Another message attempt to fuck us again
Rejection, all of what is said
This only a test
This only a test
This lie is only a test
This only a test
This only a test
This lie is only a test
This only a test
This only a test
This is a test, this is a test
This is only a test
This is a test, this is a test
This is only a test
This is a test, this is a test
This is only a test
This is a test, this is a test
This is only a test
"This is a test-this is a test."
"This is only a test."
"This is a test-this is a test."
"This is only a test."
"This is a test-this is a test."
"This is only a test."
"This is a test-this is a test."
"This is only a test."
"This is a test-this is a test."
"This is only a test."
"This is a test-this is a test."
"This is only a test."
"This is a test-this is a test."
"This is only a test."
"This is a test-this is a test."
This lie! ("This is only a test.")
This only a test
This only a test
This life is only a test
This only a test
This only a test
This lie is only a test
This only a test
This only a test
This test
This, only a test
Only a test
Only a test
Test
Only a test
A test
A test
A test
A test
A test
Only a test
A test
Only a test
Only a test
Only a test
