lyrics

Defeated. Reminisce. Allegiance. Cold iron fists. Floating planes, of consciousness. Prearranged (or) coincidence?

All of the masses are wicked, tied and upright. Call on the horses so fickle, savage, denied.Scrape them up. Or lay them down. Ooooh

The watchmen counting heads. Give us this day our daily bread. Alabaster. Freckled and abound. It's all the same

Cockeyed. Watching. Waiting. Playing.
Mark them. Fold them. Lock their bones away. Proctor. Oh, Proctor, Oh.

This breath will chase the dead.

Spinning farther into dark submission.
Open casting for a puppet show.
Throw a light upon this apparition.
Shadows from the glow.

Defeated. Reminisce. Allegiance. Cold iron fists. Floating planes of consciousness. Prearranged (or) coincidence?

Bring in the children. Send out the riders. Where are the children? Ashes and fires.

Houses burning down. It's all the same.

Cockeyed. Watching. Waiting. Playing.
Mark them. Fold them. Lock their bones away.
