We Have Been Warned!
A Snap Shot of The Devil; An Epitome of Greed.
"A Hole In The World" by Thursday
In this blackout inertia will hold our thoughts
And the exit sign offers no light to see by
Can we cast our shadows alone in the dark?
I can't see without you
When the world is crashing down
Part with it Start again
When the world is crashing down
These notes will fold themselves
Standing at the margin's edge to see where the daybreak ends
You can find compassion here
But the page turns too fast
We fell in this hole that opened up
Giving up on hope
Living without love
And we still type black lines
When the world comes crashing down
These notes will fold themselves
Adjust the aperture to focus on the negative
Like phosphors in the darkroom ignite
Like dodging faces in the corner of the print
Frame by frame this hole is opening up and we fall in
There is no such thing as whole
There is a hole in the world
"Autobiography Of A Nation" by Thursday
Write these words back down inside
We have burned their villages and all the people in them died
We adopt their customs and everything they say we steal
All the dreams they had we kill
Still we all sleep sound tonight
Is this what you wanted to hear?
We erased all their images and dance
And replaced them with borders and flags
At the top of this timeline you'll remember
This is the lipstick on the collar And in my own life
I've seen it in the mirror sometimes at the cost of others hopes
So write these words back down inside
That's where you need it the most and without conviction of heart
you will never feel it at all
Yeah, we all dance to the same beat when we we're marching
Yeah, the TV tells us everythign we need to know
And this scene is painting in all the fashions of the moment
And history is all the same
Everything you say you stole
Every dream you dream you bought
Like i said before music is everything. Music is a signature on your memories. A watermark on your thoughts. A written history. These are 2 songs that showcases Thursday's illustration of Karma
