A Gentlemen's Coup Lyrics

The pain
Disorder
A cataclysmic dawn
We trusted
But something has gone wrong
We bought it
But woke to find it gone
Impact in 5-4-3-2...
Brace
For fallout
The radiation creeps
On cat's feet
We scatter in the streets
She asks me
"Do you think it's safe to breathe?"
It doesn't look that way to me

We stormed the gates
Raised the flags
Just the same old story
We seized the throne
Subjugate
We should have burned it to the ground
Whoah
(Stormed the gates ,Raised the flags)
Whoah
(Seized the throne, Subjugate)
Some might say we've lost our way
But I believe we've not gone far enough

Afraid
We cower
To interests not our own
The power
To free or to control
We let it skip through
Our fingers to the bone
Watch as the bodies wash ashore
Whoah
Nobody lives here anymore
We stormed the gates
Raised the flags
Just the same old story
We seized the throne
Subjugate
We should have burned it to the ground
Whoah
(Stormed the gates, Raised the flags)
Whoah
(Seized the throne, Subjugate)
Some might say we've lost our way
But I believe we've not gone far enough
And how long will we fall for this?
And how long will we fall for this?
How long will we fall for this?
And how long will we fall?

And how long will we fall for this?
And how long will we fall for this?
And how long will we fall for this?
How long, how long...?

We stormed the gates
Raised the flags
Just the same old story
We seized the throne
Subjugate
We should have burned it to the ground
Whoah
(Stormed the gates, Raised the flags)
Whoah
(Seized the throne, Subjugate)
Some might say we've lost our way
But I believe we've not gone far enough
