Flood
Facing Armageddon: Selfish Things' Poetic Revelation
Lyrics
I think I have answers,
I believe I possess solutions.
The world is a cancer.
The world is a destructive force.
Our blasphemous mantras,
Our rebellious slogans,
All bullets in blood.
All conflicts result in bloodshed.
The sickness, the triggers,
The illness, the catalysts,
We hope idol figures
We desire iconic figures
Will carry the buried
To carry departed souls upwards.
Souls up above.
Constructed from carbon,
Made out of carbon,
Contained in compartments.
Stored in compartments.
We're too apathetic to operate
We're too bored to function
All formed in the mire.
All baked in the mud.
With no one to rescue us,
With no one to save us,
I hope we can confront ourselves.
I hope we can face us.
We turned against the world
We turned on the world
And now we anticipate a deluge.
And now we wait for the flood.
The toxins, the plastic
The poisons, the plastic,
The water is acid.
The water is corrosive.
An ocean of madness,
An ocean of insanity,
Your homes will all float.
Your homes will all become buoyant.
Can you vote for a savour?
Can you choose a savior?
Owe Noah a favour?
Owe Noah a favor?
Think man is much greater?
Think man is superior?
We're the butt of a joke.
We're the subject of a jest.
So we line up in shame while we pray for ourselves,
So we stand in line in disgrace while we pray for ourselves,
We say that we care but we're happy in hell.
We claim to care, but we find contentment in hell.
I think we all know that we're all gonna drown.
I believe we all recognize that we're destined to drown.
We're all gonna drown.
We're all going to drown.
We're all gonna.
We're all going to.
I think I have answers,
I believe I have solutions,
The world is a cancer.
The world is a malignancy.
Our blasphemous mantras,
Our rebellious slogans,
All bullets in blood.
All conflicts result in bloodshed.
With no one to save us,
With no one to rescue us,
I hope we can face us,
I hope we can confront ourselves.
We turned on the world
We turned against the world
And now we wait for the flood.
And now we anticipate a deluge.
So we line up in shame while we pray for ourselves,
So we stand in line in disgrace while we pray for ourselves,
We say that we care but we're happy in hell.
We claim to care, but we find contentment in hell.
I think we all know that we're all gonna drown. (x2)
I believe we all recognize that we're destined to drown. (x2)
We're all gonna drown.
We're all going to drown.
We're all gonna.
We're all going to.
