Lyrics:
Feel me so I live again
Speak so I might breathe
Left to lie in poisoned ice
Altar of ivory
Prison by another name
The prism inside showing worthless feelings
Lower than the hate
[Chorus]
Separated from the world
Each breath, a price was paid
When fire died, death called again
In solitude, we frayed
Screaming out to no-one
Return the earth my flesh
Safe in my detention
While the angry beg for death
[Chorus]
Separated from the world
Each breath, a price was paid
When fire died, death called again
In solitude, we frayed
Each day, the fear revealed
The virus in us all
A nasty plague, that life had laid
The queen, that was to blame
[Chorus]
Separated from the world
Each breath, a price was paid
When fire died, death called again
In solitude, we frayed
[parky solo? paky solo!]
A dollar, or a life?
A dollar, stop the fire?
A dollar, give it away?
The bodies, higher, higher
[Chorus]
Live in here, this failing mind
A victim of the year
When the virus grew, I realise
The solitude was nothing new
Solitude was nothing new
Solitude was nothing new
[now this is arguably the most important part of the song, don't screw it up parky]
1.7 million dead
We made this very bed
The heat will rise with every lie
The hope of night, snuffed out of sight
Brand New Year, let’s hear that Bronx cheer
Speak so I might breathe
Left to lie in poisoned ice
Altar of ivory
Prison by another name
The prism inside showing worthless feelings
Lower than the hate
[Chorus]
Separated from the world
Each breath, a price was paid
When fire died, death called again
In solitude, we frayed
Screaming out to no-one
Return the earth my flesh
Safe in my detention
While the angry beg for death
[Chorus]
Separated from the world
Each breath, a price was paid
When fire died, death called again
In solitude, we frayed
Each day, the fear revealed
The virus in us all
A nasty plague, that life had laid
The queen, that was to blame
[Chorus]
Separated from the world
Each breath, a price was paid
When fire died, death called again
In solitude, we frayed
[parky solo? paky solo!]
A dollar, or a life?
A dollar, stop the fire?
A dollar, give it away?
The bodies, higher, higher
[Chorus]
Live in here, this failing mind
A victim of the year
When the virus grew, I realise
The solitude was nothing new
Solitude was nothing new
Solitude was nothing new
[now this is arguably the most important part of the song, don't screw it up parky]
1.7 million dead
We made this very bed
The heat will rise with every lie
The hope of night, snuffed out of sight
Brand New Year, let’s hear that Bronx cheer
