The Cattle Run - Brian Rudy and the Architects

Awaken to the reality Left stranded, hope has vanished An opportunity for failure One day closer to the end of all life on this fucking planet Death obsessed! Infatuation with cessation Eternal rest, request for death at my behest Held close to the breast Clutched tight with all my might this Smith and Wesson Us humans never learn our lessons Possessed with deep aggression Self-hate, the great depression Confessing love for the end Why do we keep letting this life come between us? The years won't wipe away desire for the end times! Exit laughter Exit pleasure Exit appreciation What have we done to this world? All Hail Mortem! All Hail Silence! All Hail Death! Where have you been all our lives? One day closer To the final tragedy Born a life sentence of a Hell on Earth that we can't avoid Why do we keep letting this life come between us? The years won't wipe away desire for the end times! Lust for dying Lust for extinction Lusting for euthanasia What have we done to ourselves? We would never have asked for any of this A chemistry that's as black as any abyss Before our eyes, deep in our minds hope is swallowed A bleak despair in the air fills the hollows One day we all will mean nothing Shallow graves to tomb the suffering And the pale horse's reins pulling my heart strings We walk alone from natality until mortality We navigate lethality until fatality Everything that's now living will one day meet its demise Out of breath, out of time, a species out of its mind

Life finds a way The fauna from the trauma Culled from the pages of this human drama Our petrified tombs Now crumbling oothecas From which a new species of human arises This radiated Earth Now incubating the brood Amidst the flora, a flourishing Gomorrah Novel inhabitants Doubled down variants Of the most insidious species that's capable of sentience We molt from the past, an existence that couldn't last One rife with disease, war, abject cruelty formed From civilization's rationalization That we are to be the conquerors of all entities We're not going anywhere We disseminate and descend, our corruption has no end We stoked the fire and it backfired Returned a parthenogenetic breed, gratuitous multiplier Thriving on poison is the secret Of a successful Parasite As you make one you make another And there hide others In plain sight Successful in our adaptation For violation Of all life An inexorable imperative Human's narrative Never dies! We're coming from everywhere A promethean infestation, anthropomorphic invasion That's born from fire, roach-like survivor Returned to consume and populate terra firma occupier

It's a lifelong project of a life on the lash I've forgotten how to care but I'll remember for cash It's my party and I'll cry if I want to Light the fuse, sing the blues, I can die if I want to Tonight we're gonna bring tomorrow's happiness Gonna live like it's the end I love you to death, but I must suggest You'd better run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last You'd better run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last He's an old time blagger Wraps a hand in band Still knows the streets of Camden like the back of his hand He's an all time lover and a marathon man And with the strength of a thousand men He's a nightmare hangover He's a one night stand He can eat more chicken than any man in the land Well I've given up caring for happiness When this heart gives out is when I'll rest Run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last You'd better run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last Cause tonight we are gonna spend All tomorrow's happiness If we don't break before we bend And tonight your sole aside It'll turn out nice again It's only money in the end Run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last You'd better run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last You'd better run, run, run boy Faster than the past Through the looking glass If you want the night to last You'd better run
