No Kings by Mothjaw Lyrics
Neon hospice signs glow across capillary streets
Empty of blood and drained of any meaning
So where do we go with fading faces like these?
We’re drowning slow in a sea of capital sin
We’re drowning slow but we know that
No kings rule forever and all things come to an end
We’re loading guns to fight the cancer
Again and again and again
No king rules
No king rules
No king rules forever
But in the end we’re chained into the dirt
Struggling as a class forced to fight back
So cynical
So just bury me underneath these cold city concrete streets
Just bury me
Bury me
So cynical with nihilism in withdrawal
With fists clenching and pressing into these bloody palms
With tongues scarred from censoring teeth
Rhetorical and menacing
With no fear of any fucking consequence
But in the end we’re chained into the dirt
Struggling as a class forced to fight back
So cynical
So just bury me underneath these cold city concrete streets
Just bury me
Bury me
No kings
No kings
No kings
No king rules forever
Empty of blood and drained of any meaning
So where do we go with fading faces like these?
We’re drowning slow in a sea of capital sin
We’re drowning slow but we know that
No kings rule forever and all things come to an end
We’re loading guns to fight the cancer
Again and again and again
No king rules
No king rules
No king rules forever
But in the end we’re chained into the dirt
Struggling as a class forced to fight back
So cynical
So just bury me underneath these cold city concrete streets
Just bury me
Bury me
So cynical with nihilism in withdrawal
With fists clenching and pressing into these bloody palms
With tongues scarred from censoring teeth
Rhetorical and menacing
With no fear of any fucking consequence
But in the end we’re chained into the dirt
Struggling as a class forced to fight back
So cynical
So just bury me underneath these cold city concrete streets
Just bury me
Bury me
No kings
No kings
No kings
No king rules forever
