The Light Dies Down by The Dowling Poole Lyrics
Everyone’s got a box on which to stand
Afghan coat with a megaphone in hand
Unified - In a new subculture
Deep inside - Where the infrastructure lies
Intuitive in your capabilities
Clambering for a cod philosophy
Unified - On a worthy mission
Neutralize - Every obstacle in sight
Speak the truth - In a ploy to break them
Arrogance - Doesn’t always make you right
Hard to believe the stupidity
From the squalor to the scholars of some university
You agitate - you cultivate this atrocity
Velocity at maximum -‘til the light dies down
Spouting junk in the guise of honesty (Some democracy)
Accelerating your profanity (Too in vogue for me)
Fight your cause - With a blank agenda
No remorse - Gonna crank it up to ten (One louder for me)
So profound with your pills and powders
Best pipe down - I can shout much louder
Your say is the pinnacle of every dull encounter every day
Oh you say what you want to get it out there
No-one’s listening anyway
You gotta have your say
Hard to believe the stupidity
From the squalor to the scholars of some university
You agitate - you cultivate this atrocity
Velocity at maximum
Until the light dies down and a nation drowns
In a cesspool of corruption in the cold hands of
The indestructible - the vulnerable
Reach for words of consolation for the last time round
Until the lights go down once more
(Just stop talking)
Afghan coat with a megaphone in hand
Unified - In a new subculture
Deep inside - Where the infrastructure lies
Intuitive in your capabilities
Clambering for a cod philosophy
Unified - On a worthy mission
Neutralize - Every obstacle in sight
Speak the truth - In a ploy to break them
Arrogance - Doesn’t always make you right
Hard to believe the stupidity
From the squalor to the scholars of some university
You agitate - you cultivate this atrocity
Velocity at maximum -‘til the light dies down
Spouting junk in the guise of honesty (Some democracy)
Accelerating your profanity (Too in vogue for me)
Fight your cause - With a blank agenda
No remorse - Gonna crank it up to ten (One louder for me)
So profound with your pills and powders
Best pipe down - I can shout much louder
Your say is the pinnacle of every dull encounter every day
Oh you say what you want to get it out there
No-one’s listening anyway
You gotta have your say
Hard to believe the stupidity
From the squalor to the scholars of some university
You agitate - you cultivate this atrocity
Velocity at maximum
Until the light dies down and a nation drowns
In a cesspool of corruption in the cold hands of
The indestructible - the vulnerable
Reach for words of consolation for the last time round
Until the lights go down once more
(Just stop talking)
