A Gentlemen's Coup

The pain Disorder A cataclysmic dawn We trusted But something has gone wrong We bought in But woke to find it gone Impact in 5-4-3-2 Brace For fallout The radiation creeps On cats feet We scatter in the streets She asked me "Do you think its safe to breathe?" It doesn't look that way to me We stormed the gates And raised new flags But it's just the same old story We seized the throne Subjugate We should have burned it to the ground Some might say we've lost our way But I believe we've not gone far enough Afraid We cower To interests not our own The power To free or to control We let it slip through Our fingers to the floor Watch as the bodies wash ashore Nobody lives here anymore We stormed the gates And raised new flags But it's just the same old story We seized the throne Subjugate We should have burned it to the ground Some might say we've lost our way But I believe we've not gone far enough How long will we fall for this? How long will we fall for this? How long will we fall for this? How long will we fall...? How long will we fall for this? How long will we fall for this? How long will we fall for this? How long? How long? We stormed the gates And raised new flags But it's just the same old story We seized the throne Subjugate We should have burned it to the ground Some might say we've lost our way But I believe we've not gone far enough
