lyrics

SUMMERTIME THE WINDOWS
NEWLY WIDE AND OPENED
WAITING TO BE FREE
PENDULUMS ARE SWINGING
WHILE YOUR HEART IS RINGING
WISHING YOU COULD STAND

THE CITY ON THE HILL
INELASTIC ORDER
INTO THE VOID THEY SPILL
GAMES WITHOUT BORDERS
NEON LETTERS SPELL DESCEND
DRINK THE TAINTED WATER
THE CITY ON THE HILL
INELASTIC ORDER

JUST BEFORE THE CITY'S FALL
THEY CLOSED UP SHOP TO ONE AND ALL
HOPING TO BE PURE
STATE RELIGION 101
WEVE ALWAYS GOT THE GUN
SHOTS HEARD AROUND THE WORLD
AS THE WORLD WAS MOVING ON
THE LEADER DROPPED A GUN
AND KILLED THE BIRD OF PARADISE
THEY BURIED IT IN THE YARD
THE APPLE PIE TIPPED THE CART
NOW ALL THE ROTTING SHOWS

BRAZEN LINES ARE CHOSEN
BUTTERFLIES ARE FROZEN
STRIKING UP THE BAND
MR. REED PROVOKING
UNRESPONSIVE JOKING
THINKING WHAT THE HELL
12 YEARS FROM THE FAMILY
BROKEN BRANCHES CRY AND BLEED
IN EVERY SHADE OF LIGHT
IT'S GREY IT IN YOUR DNA
IT LIVES WITH NOTHING NEW TO SAY
