Lyrics

(A Distress)

Come down to us
They're tearing down through us

Culling away
They're burning books
burning brains
burning teacher's aims
these are the games

Culling away
Burn who looks to undo this wicked face!
You brutal race
What's become of you?

So shut down
and unscrew your head
cause your wiring's gone so wrong
did you forget?

Culling away
They're burning books
burning brains
burning teacher's names
playing games

Culling away
Burn who looks to undo this wicked face!
You brutal race

What's become of you?
Closing up the window?
I'm praying for this window...

(Lure)

One by one
turn you on
one by one
and you're gone..

So rise tonight
Your serpentine is burning ripe
Surprise tonight
Your serpentine has bloomed
to cut you in two

(Quietly)

Escape! Escape!
The nanny's come to spoon the bait
and to show you home
Console the views
which keep them whole
their eyes won't refuse
they're gonna use

Infiltrating light
to medicate
but don't you try to flee
the slumber party

This nighty-night is old
and certified as proof
you might not do
as you're told
So down you go
to lose a day
when the only winning move
is not to play

Infiltrating light
to medicate
won't you try and flee
the slumber party?

Frozen in this space
A cold and nameless face
Draws you inside
Drains you, trains you
not to fight!

Infiltrating light
to medicate
won't you try and flee?
Won't you try?
Won't you try?
Won't you try?
