Flobots - Quarantine lyrics
[Flobots - Quarantine lyrics]
Circle up, circle up civil servant serpents
Peace we demanding to serve it up
Stirrups on our certainty
The tide will turn we’re turning up
We're turning tides no turning us
The tide is high the term is up
And don’t look now the surf is up
The surge is us
When the sickness is pervasive
'Cause, I can see the sails
Of conquistadors and slave ships
The vectors lie adjacent
And spread by our complacence
Our media rephrases their
Pain as entertainment cuz fire and the flame
Is old claims exasperation
And by subtle name the slave
Is just an entertainer
And the field and stage
Are gauges of containment
The streets change to graves
When the titans clash
To reinstate their status
Hate us but no we’re not stopping
Could not be flummoxed by
Lynch mob of hobgoblins
So bring your mastodons and man of wars
Dodge them like a matador
We at the door of corporate greed
We're calling up a quarantine
We need a quarantine
This ancient war machine is broken
We need a quarantine
This ancient war machine is broken
This is live from the center of the hive
You left an open wound now
We’re spilling out the sides
The hornet and the wasps fly
United in the storm
We’ll look back on this moment as
The moment we were born let it be known
Crush the demons of the past
We stand together now raise an
Army from the ash we call upon whoever hears
The message to react
Then all as one we smash the gears
Of death and push it back
Now if you only feel it one time
Bet you felt it now
Women children frontline platinum
Melt it down eyes dripping milk as they try
To smoke us out we can see the sunshine
Behind the funnel cloud so heed the science
We are spiritually defiant
Seeking everything we’ve never had
By severing compliance
Combine it in a heavenly alliance, reunited
No longer keeping silent
We’ve awoken sleeping giants
Peace we demanding to serve it up
Stirrups on our certainty
The tide will turn we’re turning up
We're turning tides no turning us
The tide is high the term is up
And don’t look now the surf is up
The surge is us
When the sickness is pervasive
'Cause, I can see the sails
Of conquistadors and slave ships
The vectors lie adjacent
And spread by our complacence
Our media rephrases their
Pain as entertainment cuz fire and the flame
Is old claims exasperation
And by subtle name the slave
Is just an entertainer
And the field and stage
Are gauges of containment
The streets change to graves
When the titans clash
To reinstate their status
Hate us but no we’re not stopping
Could not be flummoxed by
Lynch mob of hobgoblins
So bring your mastodons and man of wars
Dodge them like a matador
We at the door of corporate greed
We're calling up a quarantine
We need a quarantine
This ancient war machine is broken
We need a quarantine
This ancient war machine is broken
This is live from the center of the hive
You left an open wound now
We’re spilling out the sides
