lyrics

godfather of a bastard child
abandoned son of a feudal age
let’s hang a crown on the scriptkeeper
know the story without turning a page

it’s a countdown to oblivion
can that be such a terrible thing?

vandals have gotten new handles
but their writing’s still on the wall
if you wanna make it out alive
you gotta jump before the fall

it’s a countdown to oblivion
can that be such a terrible thing?
disinherit what was left for us
protection from the pain it’ll bring

tear the whole thing down so we can start from scratch
let’s let the roaches sort it out with the rats
a scorched earth this cold wasn’t meant to last
got my fingers crossed for the industrial collapse

we’re dogs at the table begging for scrap
wearing pavlov’s collars, our memories mapped
unstack the deck and let’s shuffle again
why is this a tear we even wanna mend?

it’s a countdown to oblivion
what’s another million … of us?
