Lyrics
A John Hancock with the Safety Off
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.
Cure the radio
We’ll lend you an oxygen flask
Cure the airwaves
To quench your collapse at last
Cure the video
We’re beaming in pearl and white
Cure the satellites
Cause finally your poverty’s mine
You’re probably wondering how we came out alive
Why we are laughing while you bury your eyes
You’re probably wondering how we came out alive
Never forget our only reason to live
is to die
Cure the Radio
Solutions of silver and chrome
Cure the Airwaves
In broadcasts of pirate hopes
Cure the video
These portraits of “assets” have turned
Cure the satellites
From pictures into revolvers
From sand you were made
to sand you return
Come Down
And rise to our level
Let all the world know the prisoners took flight
And watch the city streets as towers ignite
The formers kings and all their armies burn bright
While we sit back in all the glory tonight
You’re probably wondering how we came out alive
Never forget our only reason to live...
