Lyrics
The plague has come to rouse forth its rats
Sing for Year Zero!
Woe betides us all
The ashen and the hollowed
How might we escape the sentence of gehenna?
Doomed as we are to rouse forth our rats
Sing for Year Zero!
Woe betide us all
The sick and the sallowed
How might we escape the judgement of gehenna?
Doomed as we are to rouse forth its rats
Sing for Year Zero!
The plague will come to rouse forth its rats
Again and again
Until we're given nothing- forever
We'll have ourselves to blame
Before a dying god
Where might the thieving rats burrow?
When a titan falls, a Judas hangs
The plague has come to rouse forth its rats
Sing for Year Zero!
Woe betides us all
The haggard and the haunted
How might we escape the sentence of gehenna?
Doomed as we are
To rouse forth our rats
Sing for Year Zero!
The plague will come
To exact its revenge
Before the fall
Give them nothing- forever
Who then stands to gain?
Before a dying god
Where might the thieving rats burrow?
In heaven, or in hell on Earth?
Another flood is coming
To wash away the excess of a golden age
There is no way back from this place alive
If we dare to stand where better men died
At the terminus of unfreedom
Is a chorus of teeth impotently gnashing
Reeking in excrement and filth
Like grains of draining sand to the hourglass
Have we passed this event horizon?
Did the age of free will end?
Has the will of the world collapsed?
Take a look at what you've done
If we are but meaningless animals in a meaningless place
Who are we to question the Lord thy God?
"Men must endure there going hence. Even as their coming hither. Ripeness is all."
Doomed as we are
Must the cowards among us
Lead us to war?
Doomed as we are
With the gallows above us
And our shadows below
Doomed as we are
Must the cowards among us
Lead us to war?
Doomed as we are
In heaven and hell on earth
The plague has come to rouse forth its rats
Sing for Year Zero!
Woe betides us all
The ashen and the hollowed
How might we escape the sentence of gehenna?
They yearn for what they fear
They fear for what they yearn
And there time, too, will come
