The Tank Songtext
von The Dear Hunter
The Tank Songtext
Eight wheels lusting for the lives of infantry (His bearings shift)
His turrets turning from accountability (He takes his aim)
We sing our final song and soon this verse is over
He makes advances ′til his wheels cease to roll (His god is smiling)
His god is smiling on his cold mechanic soul
His plot is perfect if it sees no contradiction
There's no sign that he shows a sign of slowing
You′ve stained your skin, and I won't stick around, around
Long enough to count the hearts that hit the ground
So long ago, was I one of them?
Your urgency hastened by his ingenuity (It's just a matter)
It′s just a matter of moments ′til your body is debris (So say a prayer)
His plot is perfect if it sees no contradiction
You've stained your skin, and I won′t stick around, around
Long enough to count the hearts that hit the ground
So long ago, was I one of them?
Still, he moves on
Arm and iron conquer heart and soul
And what of those in silent disconnect?
Sundry souls akin in consequence
Begging for bliss beyond the pain
Relief is just a turret's turn away
You′ve stained your skin and I won't stick around, around
Long enough to count the hearts that hit the ground
So long ago, was I one of them?
His turrets turning from accountability (He takes his aim)
We sing our final song and soon this verse is over
He makes advances ′til his wheels cease to roll (His god is smiling)
His god is smiling on his cold mechanic soul
His plot is perfect if it sees no contradiction
There's no sign that he shows a sign of slowing
You′ve stained your skin, and I won't stick around, around
Long enough to count the hearts that hit the ground
So long ago, was I one of them?
Your urgency hastened by his ingenuity (It's just a matter)
It′s just a matter of moments ′til your body is debris (So say a prayer)
His plot is perfect if it sees no contradiction
You've stained your skin, and I won′t stick around, around
Long enough to count the hearts that hit the ground
So long ago, was I one of them?
Still, he moves on
Arm and iron conquer heart and soul
And what of those in silent disconnect?
Sundry souls akin in consequence
Begging for bliss beyond the pain
Relief is just a turret's turn away
You′ve stained your skin and I won't stick around, around
Long enough to count the hearts that hit the ground
So long ago, was I one of them?
