Song Lyrics

Yeah, can you hear the call in our rambling land susurrations
That can expand beyond all hope of light and plunge us into unrelenting night?

A pall on truth and reason
It feels like hunting season
So avoid those lines of sight and we'll set this right

[Chorus:]
Welcome to the new Dark Ages
Yeah, I hope you're living right
These are the new Dark Ages
And the world might end tonight

Now come ye children one and all - let's heed Ezekiel's call
And bide until the word is good and ripe and get plucked clean out of sight

The world will be erased
Our kin will be immaculate ejaculate in space before the King of King's love
He'll snatch us from above
Brothers, help me sing it

[Chorus]

So, how do you sleep?
There's nothing to keep
This is deep

Because we're animals with golden rules
Who, who can't be moved by rational views, yeah

Welcome to the new Dark Ages
I hope you're living right
Welcome to the new Dark Ages
Say it again, yeah
These are the new Dark Ages
I hope you're living right
Welcome to the new Dark Ages
And the world might end tonight
