Quickening up above
Is this the love you're thinking of?
Turning dark in a desperate hour
Ghost lights ablaze
The children played with matches
Now you're insane
With a soulless power
A temple of sheep
You sow what you reap
In the light of the sinking sun
Divided we cower
Circuits in a blaze
The children played with matches
Now you're enslaved
United we cower
God save save the king
A tyrant born on the lives that he brings
Bring me the fool child
Bring me the fool child
Quickening from above
Is this the flesh you're thinking of?
United goats on a path so soured
Gift of time and our soul devoured
Convolute and say your truth
Bury me with my chains on
I'm not the one who steers your reins on
You're so far gone
Hey, fuck you, yeah
You're last and your lot have been cast
Hey, fuck you, yeah
I say what I want and I think you can't last
Damn, in a rut
Running around and it looks like you're stuck
Yeah, just a pluck
Our youth have a thirst and they're drinking our blood
Paradigm abuse so kind
Can I leave with my face on?
We're not the ones who steer your reins on
You're so far gone
