As I walk through forests burning
And the city cracks and frays
I feel the spirits die
And the gods all turn away
And though I have fought
So many before
Oh, I’ve heard them say
That the bigger they are…
At the break of dawn
A burning agony
With a vicious tongue
The madness swallows me
A darkness falls
In the hearts of evil men
They’ll hunt us down
A search that never ends
Now the monsters come
See the monsters come for me
They tower high
They come to pick me clean
Am I alone
The lights are going out
Here come the bads
Here come the bigger bads
Mind control
Satanic puppet show
Our hearts explode
Talk fast, your brains are slowed
Rank and file
Dogs walk the longest mile
Can’t come home
Too late to reconcile
Conspiracies
They trade in mystery
A maze of death
Pray angels set me free
My guts are shocked
Tick down, atomic clock
You think you’re bad
We’ve got some bigger bads
Rise and shine
Before we die
If I fight the good fight
Will you be there
My friend
