Oh Modern World
by Last Lights· from Demo
oh modern world, you’ve got me down
you’ve sucked the soul out of this sound
you’ve given every crook a crown
and silenced songs you couldn’t drown
oh modern world, I can’t keep time
I’m falling behind every line
I’m forcing my words into rhymes
with meanings that were never mine
but fuck the water in my lungs
I call fascism: fascism
a world war for the cultured class
a gang rape billed as a formal dance
hey hey hey humanist
your holy grail is a cup of piss
verse chorus verse chorus verse
we’re holy ghosts on a gangrene earth
your holy grail is a cup of piss
