Black hole paradise

Found out of something so dark

Into something so bright

Blue sky over our heads

Why the hell is everything

Turning out grey now

All things are not what they seem

The man behind the curtain

He's probably mean

Deep six keeps the population down

Broken, soaking wet, lost and floating around

Keep your head down, keep your voice down

Listen to the sound

All the races, all the faces

Just might find a winning line on the ground

Learn to take it, try to shake it

You can't fake it now

From the cradle you've been labeled

About as stable as a drunk on shaky ground

Blind luck stumbled into a tree

I would have passed by if I could have seen

Got no cares, never felt pressed

Wonder what they're getting for a pound of flesh

Bark it down now, throw in the chute

Old dog's new trick, something they can use

Deep six keeps the population down

Souls wet and broke, lost and floating around

Keep your head down, keep your voice down

Listen to the sound

All the races, all the faces

Just might find a winning line on the ground

Learn to take it, try to shake it

You can't fake it now

From the cradle you've been labeled

About as stable as a drunk on shaky ground

Black hole paradise

Found out of something so dark

Into something so bright

Blue sky over our heads

Why the hell is everything

Turning out grey now

All things are not what they seem

The man behind the curtain

He's probably mean

Deep six keeps the population down

Broken, soaking wet, lost and floating around

Keep your head down, keep your voice down

Listen to the sound

All the races, all the faces

Just might find a winning line on the ground

Learn to take it, try to shake it

You can't fake it now

From the cradle you've been labeled
