A circus of madmen running the show

Where are we heading, nobody knows

Too much confusion, with no end in sight

A prison of promise polluting our minds

Oh no...

My heart's beating, buried alive

Open my eyes, my soul won't survive

Dead and gone

My heart's beating, everyone cried

Said their goodbyes, covered in lies

Dead and gone.

The future is bankrupt, with no change to spare

The city's on fire, a family affair

You call it destruction, but you hold the knife

The people's induction, the people's demise

Oh no...

My heart's beating, buried alive

Open my eyes, my soul won't survive

Dead and gone

My heart's beating, everyone cried

Said their goodbyes, covered in lies

Dead and gone

So gone.

Hungry as vultures craving the thrown

Posing for pictures then eating your own

Raising our voices, feed the machine

They're coming to save us, but watching us bleed

Oh no...

My heart's beating, buried alive

Open my eyes, my soul won't survive

Dead and gone

My heart's beating, everyone cried

Said their goodbyes, covered in lies

Dead and gone

Dead and gone forever, baby

Dead and gone forever

Dead and gone

Dead and gone forever, baby

Dead and gone forever

Dead and gone

So gone.
