lyrics

Let me try to explain this again
As the tanks come rolling in
As the tanks come rolling in and there’s an army at…
An army at my back

I’m the worm in your heart’s heart
The threadbare catalyst spark
I’m your dying dog’s last bark
That faint pulse that says you’re not coming back

I won’t be waiting to see for myself
The rot of disease and failing health
The day is coming soon when I’ll…
I’ll rewire death

Work our way up from the swamp!
Work our way out of the stocks!
Work our way up from the swamp!
Work out way out of the stocks!

No more heart attack!
Second class!
Built to last!
Take it back!

Talk about release from the weight
Of your soul and your brain’s clean slate
Now this whole damn world is gonna
Feel out of date

Let me try to explain this again
Patience has been my best friend
You got a fuckin lot of nerve
To think this is the end

Work our way up from the swamp!
Work our way out of the stocks!
Work our way up from the swamp!
Run through the mud and the rocks!
Work our way up from the swamp!
Work our way out of the stocks!
(Pull your boots from the pull of the mire you’re in)
Work our way up from the swamp!
(Just to shrug off the weight of original sin)
Work our way out of the stocks!
(Til the crush of heavy cogs rolls us back down again
But I’ve got a bomb at the base of your heart
And a blueprint to rebuild it from the start)
