My Chemical Romance - The Foundations of Decay lyrics

[My Chemical Romance - The Foundations of Decay lyrics]

See the man who stands upon the hill
He dreams of all the battles won
But fate had left it's scars upon his face
With all the damage they had done

And so time with age it turns the page
Let the flesh submit it'self to gravity

Let our bodies lay
Mark our hearts with shame
Let our blood in vain, you find God in pain
Now, if your convictions were a passing faith
May your ashes feed the river
In the morning rays and as the vermin crawls
We lay in the foundations of decay

He was there, the day the towers fell
And so he wandered down the road
And we would all build towers of our own
Only to watch the roots corrode



But it's much too late you're in the race
So we'll press
And press 'til you can't take it anymore

Let our bodies lay
Mark our hearts with shame
Let our blood in vain, you find God in pain
And if, by his own hand, his spirit flies
Take his body as a relic to be canonized, now
And so he gets to die a saint
But she will always be the whore

(You look stressed out)
Against faith (Cage all the animals)
Against all life
('Cause the message must be pure)
Against change
(You can wander through the ruins)
We are plagued (But the poison is the cure)

You must fix your heart
And you must build an altar where it swells
When the storm it gains, and the sky it rains
Let it flood, let it flood, let it wash away
And as you stumble through your last crusade
Will you welcome your extinction
In the morning rays?
And as the swarm it calls
We lay in the foundations

Yes, it comforts me much more
Yes, it comforts me much more
To lay in the foundations of decay
Get up, coward!
