Chapter VII: Exodus Lyrics by The Sunpilots

King of the Sugarcoated Tongues

2012

Take a step back, we’re leaving
Burn the libraries to the ground and mustn’t look back
We’re leaving; kill the council
Melt the blood red snow
The kids will be just fine when our path is overgrown
We’ve had our chance; it’s their time to shine
Mirror mirror look at what I’ve done; what I’ve done
All the insects love me, I own everyone
Mother mother we will get it done; we will get it done
Gonna greet this madman with the piper’s guns and reverse our fear
One last hurrah before we leave here
The kids mustn’t learn what we’ve learned these years
This machine has broken down; broken down
In the watchers’ tower the alarm bells sound
Father father we will make you proud; we will make you proud
Gonna march this army from the underground through the silver gates
Melt down the masks that conceal his face
And cut out the heart of our last mistake
All hail the revolution’s here today
We’re here to blow your majesty away
Time to hit rewind. Think you can steal this crown boys?
Your mistake. Fighting reflections in mirrors you can’t break
Time to hit rewind. For tonight... come light... time to hit rewind
For tonight he must die
Oh piper piper, the city’s still now; we’ve cleared the air
She’s bruised and battered but never fear she will rise again
And while the children dream in color pack your grays and join the others
How’d we fall this far? We never put it down to human error
We’ll be racing for the ships
Be making for the stars
Please guide our final way
