lyrics

My habitual oblivion wasn't passed down but given to me
As an expansion to a thought
But the lopsided scales will let resentment prevail
That taught me nothing but regret.
Regret.
Well I'll be fucked if I forget the lesson to me handed down
Just to return to a crown of thorns that I put on my own head
Have we forgotten everything that was then done
Everything that was then said.

I can
You can't
Like fuck you can't

Downfall of a generation
The point of my admiration
And when I said I'd die for you
Well I didn't lie
And the point of my understanding
Can sometimes seem demanding
And you will know when is the time.

They looked after me there, bathed me in red wine
Took the lion's courage and made it mine
That day it changed my life
The tinmans heart they finally put to rest
They embedded it right beneath my very own left breast
That now faces toward the sky.

We're the vikings of the 21st century
We all now look to see what we can claim to be our own
Just be be a king or a queen
Well say if you, say if you only please
We just do what our mind feels.

You will know when is the time to begin your revolution.
