Periphery

Lyrics

In here, a tale of a boy who reached the massesHis name was Billy and he liked to get highA normal guy ’til the green-skin apocalypseA do-or-die

There must be something in the waterWhere he lie, where he lieHe threw that gaping brain asunderWhen he realized, when he realizedIt’s coming downYeah

We’ve sown thrones and brought the kings down to kneesHello, here we are, salutationsAnd every day that you wake s a gift that you take from the godsThat’s right

You came from the trees and we altered the genesHere you are, all you fuck with is wagesYou had the day, but you pissed it awayI think it’s time that we show our ways

Now shed that violence all overLet mayhem in the streets, whoaFrom mountain tops to oceanWe own your every needIt’s coming down

With every breath that we take, we can hear that soundSomebody needs a reaction to stay on the groundWith every breath that we take, we can hear that soundA green-skin apocalypseA do-or-die

So Billy heeds the call of fathersRelease highThrough these eyes, shit

Embraces the chi and he praises the weedsHolding out for the day he can face themEvery day that he trains is a slap in the face to the godsGod damn

Shutting out politicsViewing beings as equalsAin’t it funny how that makes sense?You had the floor, but you gave it a boreNow it’s equalCan we clean that slate?

Now shed that violence all overLet mayhem in the streets (whoa)From mountain tops to oceanWe own your every needIt’s coming down

Somebody needs a reaction to stay on the groundIt’s coming downYeah

What’s up, London?

Follow a trail of the ones who bleed the massesFollow behind the reptilian eyesA normal day in the green-skin apocalypseA do-or-die

We’ll be here summertime at DownloadWho’s coming?Fucking who’s coming?

He threw that gaping brain asunderWhen he realized, when he realized

National alliance and he leads the fightNo class, no race, just fucking violence in their eyesA plan for human survival takes to flightThe good that’s left and all we cherish stands to die

Is this the end of all we know?They all float, whoaIs this the end of all we know?Wasted our lives for what? Whoa

Make some fucking noise

Float awayDo we feed the reaction?Do we stay?Do we all float away?

Everybody make some fucking noise

Do you think you know who you are?Did you think you had it all worked out, well?Who could believeThose dead-eyed soldiers?Red sky rainfallThe winter beams no beautyJust cold-eyed monsters and bare branchesYou can wail to the moonThat’ll just make things worseThey see you, they see me, they see all

No children in the streetsWhere do they play whenFreedom here has been revoked?The ground which all their fathers soakedNo medicineThe scarcity of nourishment is evident

And where’s our god?Have we seen that side of heaven yet? No

Rich, poorClutching to their sheets in horrorIs there an answer? (No)Is there somebody who can take awayAll our present dismay?Bury the lightPray through night

Mayhem in the streetsNo orderIs there an answer? (No)Is there somebody who can take awayAll our present dismay?Bury the lightPray through night

You’ve buried that, buried that lightNow pray through nightWhat has come downIs littered all around in your sightIt’s littered in your sight

The claim they stakeA land from us, they takeThe claim they stake (they stake)A land from us, they take (they take)

The craft he shakesA race within his wakeVictory alone became his above the soil we knowA grave is laidA man within his cageVictory alone became his down in the soil he owns

Soil we know becomes our own home

Soil we know becomes our own homeNow we’re staring at the ground togetherThis is not the first time or the last timeSoil we know becomes our own homeNow we’re staring at the ground togetherNow we’re staring at the ground together

Soil we own becomes ours(Order back in what we know)Soil we own becomes oursNow one with the soil we ownSoil we own becomes ours(Order back in what we know)Soil we own becomes oursNow one with the soil we, soil we own
