Shady Sands Lyrics

A fate worse than death

Power and balances

Leave us to build from ruin

For all the challenges

Have become meaningless

And our lives expendable

In the scheme of everything

There's not a thing you can do

But let it consume you

Bated breath

The clouds loom overhead

My heart sinks down

Beneath my chest

Nothing survives the radiation

Delusions

Selfish nation

Global eradication

Bated breath

Beneath my chest

How could you be so careless?

Global eradication

Delusions of grandeur

And a selfish nation

A moment's notice

Is all we have

To find closure

In deprivation

Keep a gun clutched in your hand

And watch as it reaches

My city turned to a wasteland

From what I understand

It's just a matter of time 'till it reaches

Keep a gun clutched

Make demands

It's what got us here in the first place

If you want to survive

You have to be ruthless

And what a shame

To be given everything

Just to throw it away

The contemptuous nature

Of human idiots

Unrelenting

The only thing

That can survive the winter

Is me and you

Each soul you're tied to

Will find it's way

On a new plane

Far away from here

And such is life

It doesn't have to stop here

Whether I'm wrong or right

We all have little choice

But to slip into that state of

Uncertainty
