Lyrics:
Superstition taking all of us for a ride, mimes overtaken by the signs of the Right.
The bombs are fallin' overhead with no sight while you are talkin' all detached.
So tell us where you going, to the bottom.
Do you hear us? We are rotting. We're going down in a spiral to the ground.
No one, no one's gonna save us now.__________________________
Ceremonies have killed religions, for they provide the masked comforts to delusionals,
they're all in fright.
The true believer's head was bathed in sunlight while you are walkin' all detached.
So tell us where you going to the bottom.
Do you hear us? We are rotting. We're going down in a spiral to the ground.
No one, no one's gonna save us now, not even God.
No one saved us, no one's gonna save us. Ah._________________________________
___________________________ Where do you expect us to go when the bombs fall?
Ah._____________  Where do you expect us to go when the bombs fall?

Where do you expect them to go when the bombs fall?
Ah.___________________________________________________
______________________________________________________
_____________   Where do you expect us to go when the bombs fall?!
Superstition taking all of us for a ride, mimes overtaken by the signs of the Right.
The bombs are fallin' overhead with no sight while you are talkin' all
detached, detached, detached, detached, detached.
Going down in a spiral to the ground. No one, no one's gonna save us
