 Mars Needs Cheerleaders LYRICS
"An Excerpt"
Velvet walls, surrounding me.
I cannot hide.
This can’t be the heaven we sought, this here is a place of madness, death, and rot.
The beasts within will tear us apart.
Now we are scarred, in a realm lost long ago. Where could we be, where are we?
You cannot know.
It has destroyed our senses, but left us wanting more.
We’ve lost our minds, we’ve ceased to be!
My soul is barren.
My heart is hollow!
We’ve lost our minds, we’ve ceased to be!
NO!
We must escape at once.
With the flick of the wrist, this all came crashing down on our fucking heads.
A towering figure, he does now rise.
And we receive, his wretchedness and suffering.
"Can you hear the shrieking? They’ve woken up!"
"You have not known torment like this."
Oh, You could not comprehend the hurt that is in store.
And you, you will meet your end, at the hands of your own guilt.
And this man is just a man, full of faults, and hate and lusts for freedom from his skin.
Living in this puritan paradise of sin. He’ll take and take without remorse for nothing lies within.
We seek the lives of all mankind.
Not just the saints, but the sinners too.
The wants of many are not outweighed,
by the wants of the few.
We give up and give in to carnal needs.
Morals and values are of the past.
All we have is blasphemy.
We cannot find a way to cut loose from this place.
And only pain awaits, if we cannot escape.
One count for the fallen dozen, whose lives were waste.
One count for their burning corpses, which we now desecrate.
It’s time.
Give up, give in to carnal needs. Indulge! Bliss is ignorance.
Give up, give in to carnal needs. Indulge!
Poison reigns.
"Drop The Anchor"
And dead paired us off, in two’s just like the herds.
It set course for the surreal, and we set off.
Behind these vacant eyes.
Lay life and all its horrors, in the bastard son of night and sea, an ocean to behold.
Oh, breathe! We’re throwing ourselves in.
Go.
Now we drown!
We’ve been afraid for far too fucking long. Give merit to the strong.
We have been prepared to die for all our fucking lives! Instincts we can’t defy.
And oh, the sea she grabs ahold and beckons me. A clasp with no release.
But she, she sings a faded song of misery, to which our ears do bleed.
We still sink.
This ship is now a fiend, a fiend! That came from down below.
Ropes are tearing flesh. "My skin, my skin is screaming!"
Ropes are tearing flesh. This pain it will not end.
But we just keep falling on, to depths obscure and dark.
"Won’t Poseidon set us free!?" we ask as one.
"Do refrain. This maelstrom’s just begun!"
Oh terror, be thy name. We’re falling faster. The gods could intervene but where are they?
Seduced by water’s sight. We scorned the earth. The sea is such a whore!
The captain goes down with his ship.
As do we with this world.
Listen to the sounds. The sounds of drowning men.
Red skies in the morning, sailors take warning.
Red skies at night, be the sailors delight!
Can you even understand? The message should be clear.
Abandoning the land? What which we hold so dear?
And i’ll drop this anchor.
And i’ll let us out!
This tide will rise, one last time.
Let us out.
Drop the anchor.
Let us out.
The tide is rising.
Let us out.
Keep searching on, for waters uncharted.
It’s disgusting, how we are never satisfied.
