A Gentlemen's Coup
The pain, disorderA cataclysmic dawnWe trusted but something has gone wrongWe bought inBut woke to find it goneImpact in 5-4-3-2…
Brace for falloutThe radiation creepsOn cats feetWe scatter in the streetsShe asked me"Do you think it's safe to breathe?"It doesn't look that way to me
We stormed the gatesRaised new flagsJust the same old storyWe seized the throneSubjugateWe should have burned it to the groundWhoah...Some might say we've lost our wayBut I believe we've not gone far enough
Afraid, we cowerTo interests not our ownThe power to free or to controlWe let it slip throughOur fingers to the floorWatch as the bodies wash ashoreWhoah...Nobody lives here anymore
We stormed the gatesRaised new flagsJust the same old storyWe seized the throneSubjugateWe should have burned it to the groundWhoah...Some might say we've lost our wayBut I believe we've not gone far enough
And how long will we fall for this?And how long will we fall for this?How long will we fall for this?And how long will we fall?
And how long will we fall for this?And how long will we fall for this?And how long will we fall for this?How long, how long...
We stormed the gatesRaised new flagsJust the same old storyWe seized the throneSubjugateWe should have burned it to the groundWhoah...Some might say we've lost our wayBut I believe we've not gone far enough
