Day and Age Songtext
Hello, and welcome to the rest of your life
Before we begin this short journey, please
Sit back, relax and remember
Enjoy yourselves
You scum
He′s counting down the days in tedious grey charades
The truth still hangs on the wall when pride comes before a fall
Who am I?
In answer to your question, you won't know now
Turning the lights out and closing the windows
Just wasting your way off this world
We′re living in a dying age
When the writing's on the wall
And we're burning with a quiet rage
This is the day and age
He tries to fight his pride, but something sticks deep inside
And as this fire builds, he stands here perfectly still
Who am I?
I′m gonna be somebody, I′ve nothing left to lose
Stand in the spotlight assume your positions
You're gonna remember me now
We′re living in a dying age
When the writing's on the wall
And we′re burning with a quiet rage
This is the day and age
And if I told you sooner
My statement of intent
I'm living in the dark light
There′s nothing left to say now
This world has lost all sense
We're living in a dying age
When the writing's on the wall
And we′re burning with a quiet rage
This is the day and age
Who am I?
I′m gonna be somebody
And if I told you sooner
My statement of intent
I'm living in the dark light
There′s nothing left to say now
This world has lost all sense
We're living in a dying age
When the writing′s on the wall
And we're burning with a quiet rage
This is the day and age
Before we begin this short journey, please
Sit back, relax and remember
Enjoy yourselves
You scum
He′s counting down the days in tedious grey charades
The truth still hangs on the wall when pride comes before a fall
Who am I?
In answer to your question, you won't know now
Turning the lights out and closing the windows
Just wasting your way off this world
We′re living in a dying age
When the writing's on the wall
And we're burning with a quiet rage
This is the day and age
He tries to fight his pride, but something sticks deep inside
And as this fire builds, he stands here perfectly still
Who am I?
I′m gonna be somebody, I′ve nothing left to lose
Stand in the spotlight assume your positions
You're gonna remember me now
We′re living in a dying age
When the writing's on the wall
And we′re burning with a quiet rage
This is the day and age
And if I told you sooner
My statement of intent
I'm living in the dark light
There′s nothing left to say now
This world has lost all sense
We're living in a dying age
When the writing's on the wall
And we′re burning with a quiet rage
This is the day and age
Who am I?
I′m gonna be somebody
And if I told you sooner
My statement of intent
I'm living in the dark light
There′s nothing left to say now
This world has lost all sense
We're living in a dying age
When the writing′s on the wall
And we're burning with a quiet rage
This is the day and age
