One Way Out Lyrics by The Dark Monarchy

Chiaroscuro

0

Big wigs, commercial suits and the make believe
Give them the time to tax the air we breathe
Lives broken down beneath a sea of stars
We sell our houses just to fill our cars
We offer broken hands
To donate bargain cans
A million mouths to feed
Consume bureaucracy
And we breed more and more whilst the planet is choking
We are pawns in a game that we don’t want to play
And we shield from the light whilst the planet is smoking
A blind eye to the beast in the cold light of day
Regenerating and filling with life
Contaminating the world by design
Accommodating with arms open wide
Obliterating everything in sight
And here’s the next one, and here’s the next one after
And we try and fill our lives with sanctity
But it’s overshadowed with the urgency
And we need to fill our lives with symmetry
But it’s overpowered by hostility
We offer broken hands
To donate bargain cans
A million mouths to feed
Consume bureaucracy
And we breed more and more whilst the planet is choking
We are pawns in a game that we don’t want to play
And we shield from the light whilst the planet is smoking
A blind eye to the beast in the cold light of day
