An Oceans Monument by Deadlock Lyrics
We put the fear of God into this world
We lost the war on the non-existent
We fought the greed of men among the dead
Altruistic, systematic
Down your love so I can drown, so I can drown my shame
Bring the drugs so I can numb, so I can numb my pain
You cried out the pain in words like plagues
A serpentine monument for the lambs
O’Brother – What made us fall from grace?
Destructive, systematic
An ocean
Of broken glass
An ocean
To drown the rats
Down your love so I can drown, so I can drown my shame
Bring the drugs so I can numb, so I can numb my pain
Drown your thoughts to let me dream, to let me dream again
And go with all the guilt and shame a thousand times – in vain
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
Down your love so I can drown, so I can drown my shame
Bring the drugs so I can numb, so I can numb my pain
Drown your thoughts to let me dream, to let me dream again
And go with all the guilt and shame a thousand times – in vain
We lost the war on the non-existent
We fought the greed of men among the dead
Altruistic, systematic
Down your love so I can drown, so I can drown my shame
Bring the drugs so I can numb, so I can numb my pain
You cried out the pain in words like plagues
A serpentine monument for the lambs
O’Brother – What made us fall from grace?
Destructive, systematic
An ocean
Of broken glass
An ocean
To drown the rats
Down your love so I can drown, so I can drown my shame
Bring the drugs so I can numb, so I can numb my pain
Drown your thoughts to let me dream, to let me dream again
And go with all the guilt and shame a thousand times – in vain
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
An ocean’s monument
Down your love so I can drown, so I can drown my shame
Bring the drugs so I can numb, so I can numb my pain
Drown your thoughts to let me dream, to let me dream again
And go with all the guilt and shame a thousand times – in vain
