[Verse 1]
And now that the king is dead
A bullet in the head, he graced the cover of the times
[Verse 2]
We are just peasants in the street
Never make ends meet, Picking up the bread crumbs like a dove
[Chorus]
Hey Henry Thoreau
It’s really not that simple
[Refrain]
I’m barely hangin' on
The common thread is gone
I fell asleep in life
[Verse 3]
And now a new day rages on
It’s just life on the farm, it’s just the price you pay
[Verse 4]
New lists of rules to which you must conform
Evеn though everything could put you, in the gravе
[Chorus]
Hey Vincent Van Gogh
No stars in the dark night of the soul
[Refrain]
They tell me I have a spirit of old
But I’ve got no place to go, and my heart's on fire
[Verse 5]
This wide eyed wonder, the ship has sailed
All of the dealers have gone for help
Don’t you know only you can help yourself
First you must have a vision that you’re blind
[Verse 6]
And now that God did not save the queen
You’re questioning, even if there is a god
[Verse 7]
They built the world like the pyramids
Orchestrated without a single hole in the plot
[Chorus]
Hey Joan of Arc
Nineteen is far too young to be a martyr
[Refrain]
And I know I’m damaged goods
I never really ever left the woods
I believed the liar
[Verse 8]
With wide eyed wonder, what will you sacrifice
You’ll pay the fee to feed your vice
You’re already going the speed of light
You’re already speaking, with your mind
[Verse 9]
And now that they took down the wall
We’ll begin again to pick up the pieces, that were broken
[Verse 10]
Every season has nine lives
You’ll never forget, where your thoughts have been
[Chorus]
Hey Carl Jung
I am what I choose to become
[Verse 11]
I drank all through the night
Sang loudly, “Auld lang syne”
[Verse 12]
Traveled through dimensions, space and time
And stopped to smell the roses on my grave
[Outro]
Nothing you can save, it’s all set to expire
No way to escape the heart on fire
