Godspeed You! Black Emperor

The car is on fire, and there's no driver at the wheel<br /> And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides<br /> And a dark wind blowsThe government is corrupt<br /> And we're on so many drugs<br /> With the radio on and the curtains drawnWe're trapped in the belly of this horrible machine<br /> And the machine is bleeding to deathThe sun has fallen down<br /> And the billboards are all leering<br /> And the flags are all dead at the top of their polesIt went like this:The buildings tumbled in on themselves<br /> Mothers clutching babies<br /> Picked through the rubble<br /> And pulled out their hairThe skyline was beautiful on fire<br /> All twisted metal stretching upwards<br /> Everything washed in a thin orange hazeI said, "Kiss me, you're beautiful -<br /> These are truly the last days"You grabbed my hand<br /> And we fell into it<br /> Like a daydream<br /> Or a feverWe woke up one morning and fell a little further down<br /> For sure it's the valley of deathI open up my wallet<br /> And it's full of blood<br /> <br /> Song Discussions is protected by U.S. Patent 9401941.
