Split the Atom
The Ghost of a Thousand

There's a shadow on the bodies
of the kids that we all grew up adoring.
Can you whisper, can you stutter,
can you breath whilst the smog climbs through our mountains?
This is bleeding us dry, this is cutting us up,
we're the kids who see the world as an empty cup,
with a death note and a black stare
and a pardon from a government that doesn't care.
We sleep, our locks are picked apart and analyzed.

Here's your weapon, here's your secret,
here's the pieces of the puzzles you have hidden.
Here's your money, here's your gun,
here's the funeral you've earned only son.
Well we're all drinking alone, we're all singing a tune,
we're the kids in the blacked out hospital rooms
with the lights on, and our eyes shut
as the bricks and the timber fall around us.
We sleep our locks are picked apart and analyzed.

Pick up, pick up, pick up, pick up the damn phone,
there's a chance we'll make it tonight.
Run on, run on, run on, this is an island
not a tomb for the likes of you and I.
Yeah we've got the pigs skin,
yeah we split the atom,
yeah we lost the one good thing we made.

Yeah we're drinking alone, yeah we're singing a tune,
we're the kids in the blacked out hospital rooms,
with the lights on, and our eyes shut
as the bricks and the timber fall around us.
See that bitch swing, fucking treason.
Split the atom, split it.

Lyrics by The Ghost of a Thousand

  As They Breed They Swarm   Black Art Number One   Bored of Math   Bright Lights   Canyons of Static   Fed to the Ocean   Good Old Fashioned Loss   Knees, Toes, Teeth   Left for Dead   Married To The Sidewalk   Moved as Mountains, Dreamt of by the Sea   Neptune   New Toy   Nobody Ever Gives You A Straight Answer to Anythin...   Nobody Likes a Hero   One for the Road   Running On Empty   The Last Bastion of Heaven Lies Abandoned and Burn...   Up To You
