Dead and Gone - Sonic Syndicate

There is no shelter;

just the body that God gave us And all we can do is to hope that that’s enough

Well, I know the rules;

always did

They are written inside of my eyelids

It’s an imperfect world we live in,

But it’s the only world we have

The less we get, the more we want

In this throwaway society

Fading to the point of no return

We’re at a crossroads

Just follow the compass of your heart

Until we all get torched

Get torched by the undying sun

WHEN WE’RE DEAD AND GONE

WHEN OUR MISTAKE’S BEEN DONE

A CELESTIAL CORPSE WILL CARRY ON

AND IT WILL ILLUSTRATE

HOW WE UNDERMINED OUR OWN EXISTENCE

WHEN WE’RE DEAD AND GONE A AND OUR MISTAKE’S BEEN DONE

LET’S ALL JUST FACE THE FACTS

NO MATTER HOW WE BEND OR BREAK IT

WE MAKE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE

Out of all our human-crafted artifacts

The longest-lasting will be our redesigned atmosphere

Now, how does that make you feel that we’re beyond repair?

We sealed our fate in this slow-motion suicide

The less we get, the more we want

In this throwaway society

Fading to the point of no return

We’re at a crossroads

Just follow the compass of your heart

Until we all get torched

Get torched by the undying sun

What we set in motion must play itself out

So we can hand the Earth over in better shape than we accepted it
