Western Medicine Songtext
Hand in hand, and side by side
Line by line we march to die
Board the ark two of a kind
What′s the price we put on our lives
Questions and contradictions in perfect rhyme
Cut my hands with the tears on your smile
A lifelong joke without the punchline
Specimens of grander schemes whilst earth is downsized
We can burn the body bags once the pockets are lined
Western medicine spreads like flies
With euthanasia embedded in their spines
The skin of the earth tires of their bite
How many bees died in the hive
Build paper asylums that scrape the sky
Vow obedience as you're sterilised
Under holes in the sky once the stars align
Clandestine games under sheets of white
Set apart by great divides
Creation and intervention start to collide
As the matter collapsed, we fell inside
You′re dammed if you don't, you're dammed if you try
Announce to the world that we′re still fine
Slumped over the only tree for miles
Another heretic to crucify
You′re hate will always be my guide
Painful repetition in a flawed design
Such sights to see through schizophrenic eyes
A stark reminder that free thought's a lie
There are no good thoughts, to change my mind
You cant shut out what′s already inside
Call me Paranoid, the visions always thrive
Don't underestimate the faith in this disguise
There are no good thoughts, but at least they′re mine
Line by line we march to die
Board the ark two of a kind
What′s the price we put on our lives
Questions and contradictions in perfect rhyme
Cut my hands with the tears on your smile
A lifelong joke without the punchline
Specimens of grander schemes whilst earth is downsized
We can burn the body bags once the pockets are lined
Western medicine spreads like flies
With euthanasia embedded in their spines
The skin of the earth tires of their bite
How many bees died in the hive
Build paper asylums that scrape the sky
Vow obedience as you're sterilised
Under holes in the sky once the stars align
Clandestine games under sheets of white
Set apart by great divides
Creation and intervention start to collide
As the matter collapsed, we fell inside
You′re dammed if you don't, you're dammed if you try
Announce to the world that we′re still fine
Slumped over the only tree for miles
Another heretic to crucify
You′re hate will always be my guide
Painful repetition in a flawed design
Such sights to see through schizophrenic eyes
A stark reminder that free thought's a lie
There are no good thoughts, to change my mind
You cant shut out what′s already inside
Call me Paranoid, the visions always thrive
Don't underestimate the faith in this disguise
There are no good thoughts, but at least they′re mine
