Ending of an Era Lyrics

The city, the hustle
The workers, the muscle
The martyrs, the monkeys
The data, the junkies

The wounded, the tortured
The fallen, the slaughtered
The highway, the wagons
The dungeons, the dragons

The ocean, the salmon
The lifeblood, the famine
The cattle, the karma
The bible, the drama

The princess, the paupers
The daughters, their stalkers
The statement, the warning
The sirens, we set 'em off

Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above
Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above

Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above
Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above

The huffing, the puffing
The money for nothing
The winnings, the losses
The burning of the crosses

The passion, the hunger
The lightning, the thunder
The murder, the mirror
The ending of an era

The fortune, the market
The children, the target
The lovers, the fighters
The writers that guide us

The future, the preachers
The teachers that reach us
The statement, the warning
The sirens, we set 'em off

Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above
Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above

Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above
Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above

Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above
Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above

Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above
Sirens, sound of the sirens
Hell reigns above

Sirens, sirens
Sirens, sirens
