And on that day they'll tell you
That life hung on with no clue
The warning signs were all just missed or shattered down
So it goes
The kings all failed to tell us
The madmen failed to sell us
Of what would then befall the only life we know
When they're burning signal fires
To guide us to the fields
We're building funeral pyres
They all come by the final appeal
The city lines are down
The kerosene's run out
The fracturing of all we relied upon
Lets shed this unclean skin
And start to feel again
Because all the shoulders
On which to cry are gone
The paranoia gripped us
The rain turned engines to rust
The panic set in like a cancer to our hearts
Spreading through
We bet on finite genius
Or prayed for gods to save us
But there was no antidote
Disease tore us apart
We left bodies in the fields
So numb that we forgot how to feel
The city lines are down
The kerosene's run out
The fracturing of all we relied upon
Lets shed this unclean skin
And start to feel again
Because all the shoulders
On which to cry are gone
He looked at the fields
And then his hands,
"All I need is what I have"
Then shed a tear of happiness
She watched the world
Crumble away
"Is this the end of yesterday?"
"Lord, I hope so" is all he said
All I've got are the organs
All I've got are the coco wars
And as we go forth
I pray we'll remember this day
Oh, we relied on now
The city lines are down
The kerosene's run out
The fracturing of all
We relied upon
Lets shed this unclean skin
And start to feel again
There are no shoulders
Shoulders to cry on now
No more, no more
No more, no more
No more, no more
The weight that we once felt is gone
