Within the Ruins - Clockwork lyrics
[Within the Ruins - Clockwork lyrics]
Oh, what to do
What to do when a city had run amuck
Can't tell the surviving from the dying
Can't tell the corrupt from the pure
The gutters are full of blood
From the sex, scum, politics, and whores
Like a beaten child this city whimpers
Backed into a corner with no one to save it
But there are still few who believe
In blocking the hand that bleeds
That bleed this city dry
Suck it up for the ones
That deserve to be alive
Suck it up for the ones
That deserve to be alive
Justice is coming to all of us
No matter what the fuck we do
This is not a conquest of men
But of the evils that beset them
It's all so confusing, but yet so simple
The American Dream is condemned
And we're all going down
And we're all going down
The gutters are full of blood
From the sex, scum, politics, and whores
Like a beaten child this city whimpers
But there are still few who believe
In blocking the hand that bleeds
That bleeds this city dry
Suck it up for the ones
That deserve to be alive
Suck it up for the ones
That deserve to be alive be alive
Judgement will come not with a gavel
But with a nuclear blast
Judgement will come not with a gavel
But with a nuclear blast
This utopia was built on horror
This utopia was built on horror
This utopia was built on horror
This utopia was built on horror
It's all so confusing, but yet so simple
The American Dream is condemned
And we're all going down
And we're all going down
What to do when a city had run amuck
Can't tell the surviving from the dying
Can't tell the corrupt from the pure
The gutters are full of blood
From the sex, scum, politics, and whores
Like a beaten child this city whimpers
Backed into a corner with no one to save it
But there are still few who believe
In blocking the hand that bleeds
That bleed this city dry
Suck it up for the ones
That deserve to be alive
Suck it up for the ones
That deserve to be alive
Justice is coming to all of us
No matter what the fuck we do
This is not a conquest of men
But of the evils that beset them
It's all so confusing, but yet so simple
The American Dream is condemned
And we're all going down
And we're all going down
The gutters are full of blood
From the sex, scum, politics, and whores
Like a beaten child this city whimpers
But there are still few who believe
In blocking the hand that bleeds
That bleeds this city dry
Suck it up for the ones
That deserve to be alive
Suck it up for the ones
That deserve to be alive be alive
Judgement will come not with a gavel
But with a nuclear blast
Judgement will come not with a gavel
But with a nuclear blast
This utopia was built on horror
This utopia was built on horror
This utopia was built on horror
This utopia was built on horror
It's all so confusing, but yet so simple
The American Dream is condemned
And we're all going down
And we're all going down
