lyrics

BEFORE THE ROT SETS IN

BLACK SKIES ENCROACHING
AS THE NIGHT TIME CLOSES IN
DARK CLOUDS APPROACHING
AS THE EVENING LIGHT GROWS DIM
IT DOESN’T TAKE A GENIUS
TO SEE THE WALLS ARE CAVING IN
THEY SHOULDN’T MAKE A FOOL OF US
BECAUSE IT’S ALL JUST WAFER THIN

ALTHOUGH ITS A SHAME
THINGS HAVE TO CHANGE FOR US ALL

WE GOTTA STOP THE PLOT BEFORE THE ROT SETS IN
STEM THE FLOW BEFORE IT GOES WITHIN
SEVER APRON STRINGS
ALTER EVERYTHING THAT YOU EVER KNEW
YOU GOTTA STOP THE PLOT BEFORE THE ROT SETS IN

IT’S SO UNNERVING
THE RUG’S BEEN PULLED FROM UNDER YOUR FEET
IS IT WORTH PRESERVING
A POISONED CHALICE MORE SOUR THAN SWEET
IT SHOULDN’T MAKE A DIFFERENCE
BUT PREVENTION’S BETTER THAN A CURE
AND IF I HAD TO MAKE A PREFERENCE
IT’S BEST TO LEAVE THEM WANTING MORE

IF YOU BREAK THE MOULD
IT CAN’T UNFOLD BEFORE YOUR EYES
