Verse 1 Memories on the child's face Another breath lost without a trace The concrete breathes a final, tired sigh And the buildings hum a funeral lullaby We were giants, we were titans made of flesh Tried and tried just to live out our best The clock on the wall has no hands left to spin It doesn’t even know where to begin Chorus So we sway, oh lord, we sway Let the final vibration just wash it all away There’s a tremor in the floorboards, don’t be afraid It’s the pulse of the beautiful decay Yeah… the beautiful decay… Verse 2 Fractures in the concrete, feel it right now The city’s holding on but it doesn’t know how We’re the screams in the gears with broken limbs Singing violent, forgotten hymns Blame the fools, the kings, the holy son Blame the father for the things the child has done It doesn’t matter when the pressure starts to blow C’mon, c’mon, c’mon, let’s start the show Chorus Burn until there’s nothing left to burn Dance until it isn’t your concern Scream until your lungs begin to fade Welcome to the beautiful decay Yeah… the beautiful decay… oh, lord Spoken Word Yo. Check the beat. It’s a faint repeater. Kick drum pressure getting weaker and weaker. We're all just paper mannequins with broken-glass smiles Sifting through our lives, erasing all the lines. This is the final message, a final goodbye From the trembling framework of a worn-out mind. They told us to run, they told us to pray But my feet are made of cinder block, forgot what to say. So I just… I just… feel the vibration in my teeth, you know? The low-end theory from the vertigo. A billion little stories in a bottle full of smoke The punchline to a long-forgotten cosmic joke. Ha. Yeah. So what you gonna do when the view turns to a blank screen? A beautiful, magnificent, horrifying, worn-out scene. C'mon. Chant Let the pressure kill the thought inside your head (The thought inside your head) There are no words that need to be said (Need to be said) Your skin is just a prison for the soul (The prison for the soul) Let the sound overload just take control (Take, take, take control) Chorus Bodies move, sweat and sparking light We own the chaos of this final night Don’t think about the dawn, there isn’t one Our heart is a piston, moving alone So push the pedal with your feet on the floor We are the answer, there is nothing more There is nothing more There is nothing more Screamed Shake! Until the bones inside you break! For goodness sake This is all that you can take! We are the fire We are the sound Run your feet into the ground Into the ground Into the ground Bridge Dance, dance, 'til the silence comes Dance, dance, to the beating of the drums Dance, dance, 'til the hum is your friend Dance, dance, dance, this is the end
