Fire, Plague and Locust Lyrics


First thing in the morning

Check if the world is burning

It easily can change overnight

Check if the symptom lingers

Count your teeth and fingers

Looks like you are doing alright

The smoke is rising higher

And everything's on fire

And when it dies, the plague will return

You gotta stand your ground

And build a fence around

And pray the barbed wire won't burn

When doubting your choices

You talk to inner voices

It is your way of coping with stress

Is someone coming here?

Maybe interfere?

They all had it coming, I guess

Strong men make good times!

Don't ask me how, it's science!

I’m fighting for the whole human race

And future generations

Will launch space stations

I only need to crush someone’s face

Fire, plague and locust

Are spreading as you are standing still

It all will make you stronger

Just as long as you don't kill

Yourself

You have

A gun

A head

Go mad

Count all senses

As your expenses

And leave your shelter

In disarray

You're almost hopeless

The only hope is

To try to live or

To die another day

Remember the beginning?

We thought that we were winning

Now all you want is to die in peace

In the abandoned fair

You dream of clean air

You also dream of hating your kids

You all are weak and spoiled

Your oceans aren't boiled

Your ice caps are not going to melt

Your whole generation

Is blight upon the nation

If only you just knew how it felt

When fire, plague and locust

Are spreading as you are standing still

It all will make you stronger

Just as long as you don't kill

Yourself

You have

A gun

A head

Go mad
