Lyrics

On Cracker Island, it was born
To the collective of the dawn
They were planting seeds at night
To grow a made-up paradise
Where the truth was auto-tuned
Forever cult
And its sadness I consumed
Forever cult
Into my formats every day
Forever cult
In the end, I had to pay
What world is this?
In the end, I had to pay
I purged my soul
In the end, I had to pay
I drank to riot
Nothing more to say
I drank to riot
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn't know its many strategies
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn't know its many strategies (Fantasies)
What world is this?
What world is this?
On Cracker Island, it was raised (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
By the collective from the grave (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
It only came out at night (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
It ate up their paradise
Paradise
Where the truth was auto-tuned
Forever cult
And its sadness I consumed
Forever cult
Into my formats every day
Forever cult
In the end, I had to pay
What world is this?
Out there on my silver lake
I was not there
In the end, it will be great
Beneath the hills
I'm like a ship between the tides
I saw myself
I held on, I survived
There in the void
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn't know its many strategies
They taught themselves to be occult
They didn't know its many strategies (Fantasy)
On Cracker Island, it will die
Forever cult
Join the collective in the sky
Forever cult
And on a shining boat of light
Forever cult
Go up to paradise
What world is this?
Where the truth is auto-tuned
I purged my soul
And its sadness I consume
I drank to riot
Into my formats every day
I drank to riot
In the end, I had to pay
Forever cult
In the end, I'll have to pay
Forever cult
In the end, I'll be okay
Forever cult
Nothing more to say
Nothing more to say
Nothing more to say
