“Alive"

Cabinet of Curiosities: Pack I

No we’re not happy or satisfied
With castles made of cardboard and plastic knights
But if we knew it was doomed from the start
Why do we fight the dimming of the proverbial light

At the end of the tunnel that’s where I loved you
That’s where I believed in Hope that bitch
But Luck is not a lady, no one’s gonna save me
I don’t think we’re ever gonna get out of this alive

So tell me there’s a point to all of this
We send food and medicine, bombs and blitz
But we knew it was doomed from the start
So why do we fight the blurring of that bright red line

That we drew in the sand between monster and man
That’s where I believed in all that Disney shit
But the bell is tolling as the credits are rolling
I don’t think we’re ever gonna get out of this alive

Oh we’re all hooked into some
Digital dream
In so deep that no one
Can hear you scream

In the middle of the struggle that’s where I loved you
That’s where I believed in Hope that bitch
But Mr. Right had a razor underneath his blazer
I don’t think we’re ever gonna get out of this

Yeah the walls are coming down the king is just a clown
There’s blood everywhere make sure you get it on the live feed
Does anybody else feel we could use a little help
I don’t think we’re ever gonna get out of this

You know we’re never gonna get out of this alive
