Grass Before the Scythe Songtext
von IAMX

Oh I think I′ve gone down the tunnel
Of hyperfocus
Shiny new seduction
Gotta do my best to stay sober
'cause self-loathing
Gets messy as you get older

Why is it not possible to free
Fools from their stories?
Can we stop with all the masking and admit the defeat
Pay the price for our vanity?

Come to the mountain we will make you safe

Or you′ll be grass before the scythe, before the scythe

We can watch the world burning from a distance

You will be grass before the scythe, the scythe

Come to the mountain we will make you safe

You will be grass before the scythe

We can watch the world burning from a distance


Something like fetus in fetu
I was born wired
To be split in two
But these false positive schizophrenic loops
Create movement
Are of use

Come to the mountain we will make you safe

Or you will be grass before the scythe, before the scythe

We can watch the world burning from a distance

You will be grass before the scythe, the scythe

Come to the mountain we will make you safe

You will be grass before the scythe

We can watch the world burning from a distance

You will be grass before the scythe

Come to the mountain we will make you safe

Or you will be grass before the scythe

The scythe

We can watch the world burning from a distance
