lyrics

Survivors
If we could just hold it all together
Well maybe we could somehow avoid the fall
Unlikely as it seems it could just happen (I hate to admit)
So maybe we’ll survive ourselves after all (then what will we do?)
And if by some chance we see tomorrow
Will we have learned from yesterday, or even today?
I doubt that we could get out shit together
I doubt we can somehow find a way (let alone not kill ourselves)

Otherwise, all of this just ends
Otherwise, we become no more

If we could just hold it all together
Well maybe we could somehow avoid the fall
Some things are better left alone
Some things are better left unknown
Some stones are better left unturned
Would we rather be safe or just let it all burn?
Let it burn
If we could just hold it all together (Let it burn)
Well maybe we could somehow avoid the fall (Let it burn)
Let it burn
It’s culminating, accentuating, reaching a peak that I’m not hating
I’m not hating the idea of the end
The end is coming for us
All of this must end
The end is coming for us
What do you plan to do?

Putrefakt
by Romantic Industry

Romantic Industry - Putrefakt Great Album. Dark and creepy and utterly without hope for the humans. Industrial Pain. Think it might be the evil twin to "The End of Everything". It's FREE too, get some Drowning Susan

_hello world
by Information Society

INFORMATION SOCIETY!! Without them, Drowning Susan likely doesn't exist. Great new album from this always innovative and hugely formative electro outfit! Drowning Susan
