We're all just singing along
To the same tired beats and hollow songs,
As if there's nothing wrong
These are familiar games
They're well rehearsed on a well worn stage
And everyone is lining up with dead salutes and lifeless praise
The actors are all droning on and underneath said tired song
A battered throat, attempts to choke,
And make a sound that's been gone for too long
If tonight is all we'll ever know,
Then tonight I'm ripping flesh from bone
I'm slashing throats from ear to ear
I'm screaming so the deaf can hear
(Tonight) is all we'll ever know
(Tonight) I'm ripping flesh from bone
(Tonight) slashing throats from ear to ear
(Tonight) screaming so the deaf can hear
Tonight is all we know
These are familiar games,
They're well rehearsed on a well worn stage
Battered throats forever choke,
To take back everything that's been taken away
We take back everything
These are the anthems for all your darkest days,
Get used to them they may not go away
These are the lullabies for all your sleepless nights
This is a latter to you hidden in plain sight
(Tonight) is all we'll ever know
(Tonight) I'm ripping flesh from bone
(Tonight) slashing throats from ear to ear
(Tonight) screaming so the deaf can hear
So lock your doors, bar your windows,
Learn to love the solitude, run and hide
