is everyone afraid
is everyone ashamed
theyre running towards their holes to find out
apocalyptic means are lost among our dead
a message to our friends to get out
theres wages on this fear
oh so clear
depends on what youll pay to hear
theyre bound to kill us all
in whitewashed halls
their jackals lick their paws
please dont stop
its lonely at the top
these lonely days
when will they ever stop
this doomsday clock ticking in my heart
not broken
i love life every day
in each and every way
kafka would be proud to find out
im certain of the end
its the means that has me spooked
it takes an unknown truth to get out
im guessing im born free silly me
i was meant to beg from my knees
please dont stop
its lonely at the top
these lonely days
when will they ever stop
this doomsday clock ticking in my heart
these lonely days when will they ever stop
we gotta dig in gas masks on
wait in the sunshine all bugeyed
if this is living
sakes alive
well then they cant win
no one survives
is everyone afraid
you should be ashamed
apocalyptic screams
mean nothing to the dead
kissing that ol sun
to know all there is
come on last call
you should want it all
ah its lonely at the top
these lonely days
when will they ever stop
this doomsday clock ticking in my heart
these lonely days
when will they ever stop
this ticking in my heart
is everyone afraid
