lyrics
Lyrics:
"The Aftermath is Secondary"
And he sat up, stood straight, and put on his armor
he says deflect the bullets he perceives are fired on him
And all the chems he stuffs in his body, illicit and legal alike
It sustains him for the moment but even he realizes
That this can't last forever
And he performs the song of a thousand bleeding hearts
he embodies the masses pain, but they dont know he feels it all
the joy is gone from his grace, only catharsis
and even then the release diminishes
And this can't last forever
but he cant stop
the art compels him
to dance
for us
our entertainment
killing himself
killing himself
on stage
before our very eyes
this is our entertainment
