A Minute Till Midnight - Carrier Pigeons lyrics

Many came to watch the burn of the morning blaze but... The shooting stars that lead them there, were just flares thrown from last option guns Painting Morris code upon the red ash sky They watched the horizon fall between the back seats of the broken cars The plastic made transportation now labeled “Some a**embly required” They fought the dry vein desserts Where skin cracked like dollar bills They blinked with expired lashes Last chance, swing it A force not to be reckon with It's time to gather pulses Even the best may not make it make it out alive... Flat lines call hearts' failures Swimming like left wing target birds In a pool of last chances Where the water sinks the floaters On a night when the tension was as scared as a virgins flower picked One spark could start a blaze One crooked flame could cause an inferno And the ma**es would be the wood for warmth This day, took them all They followed each other To the end of the earth And never said a word As they all fell to it Like a child to a strangers candy This was the end of the world's instruction manual They all bought the text; and followed the directions to complete the task This black day creation, was well crafted in ma** destruction
