lyrics

Layer upon layer:
Monuments of misery and theft
But there is always something left
To puzzle and amaze
Cometh beast - cometh maze

Marble shivers over tyrant’s corpse
History has run out its course
Bittersweet comfort - the end of it all
Break its legs and time will crawl

Blade against a dotted line
Cut outs for clothes, clothes for cutting
Everything underneath
Means something and means nothing

Whatever happens after The Flood
Is only preparation for the next flood
The next flood can’t fail!

We are prepared
Limits of land
Limits of language
Contents of baggage
Usual suspects
Casual neglects
Speak without a coma
Walk straight into a coma
With diploma
Without diploma

Whole world is tired
Of life it never had
But hey, this is only a song!

The next flood can’t fail!
Layer upon layer:
Monuments of misery and theft
But there is always something left
To puzzle and amaze
Cometh beast - cometh maze

The next flood can’t fail!
