Lyrics

The Glory and The Scum

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

We all live in unforgiving precarious ways

If it bleeds, it leads is all we seem to hear today

Thorns remain while flowers fade

Monster

Such a noble novelty

Monster

Such a proper property

Monster

It is all enrolled in you and me

Oooohhh

Either wasteland or wonderland

look at what we've done

Take a step back

shake your head at what we have become

We're the glory and the scum

Monster

Sewer of uncertainty

Monster

Creator of entropy

Monster

It is all enrolled in you and me

Oooohhh

Monster

Polluter of dignity

Monster

Glory and the scum, are we?

Monster

Oh the best and worst is all in me

Oooohhh
