|
Mr. Money:
|
I woke up today
|
Expecting to find all that I sought
|
And climb the mountains of the life I bought
|
Finally I'm at the top of every hierarchy
|
Unfortunately there is no one left
|
But me
|
|
I woke up today
|
To a world that's ground to dust, dirt and stone
|
I'm the king upon this withering throne
|
I ruled every forest, every mountain, every sea
|
Now there're but ruins left to rule for me
|
And... you see, it beckons me;
|
Life turned its back on us
|
How could you just agree?
|
...how? I just don't see...
|
|
I woke up today
|
To a world devoid of forests and trees
|
Drained of every ocean, every sea
|
Just like a useless brick upon the shore
|
The morning after the storm
|
That swept the bridge away
|
Relentless tide
|
No anger
|
Just this relentless time
|
That calls us all on
|
But...
|
|
I'm never crossing that line
|
Leaving this world behind
|
I will stay on my own
|
On this withering throne
|
I rule the ruins and wrecks
|
And the dust, dirt and stone
|
I rule rage rod and rattling of bones
|
|
I am on my own
|
I am all alone
|
Everything is gone
|
Stuck forever here
|
Already cold
|
|
I'm never crossing that line
|
Leaving this world behind
|
I will stay on my own
|
On this bloodstained throne...
|
|
I'm never crossing that line
|
Leaving this world behind
|
I will stay on my own
|
On this bloodstained throne
|
I rule the ruins and wrecks
|
And the dirt and the dust and the stone
|
I'm the ruler of rage rod and rust
|
And the rattling of bones
|
Ruler of ruin
|
I rule the ruins (ad lib)
|
