lyrics

We shiver in a molten iron core
At the center of a planet that we can not explore
Epithets on infinite loop
The alphabet is lost in the soup

Mutually assured destruction
A cradle in a grave where we can suck our thumbs

These passionate, didactic absolutes
Your argument – I’ll never ever let you lose
We’re yin and yang, we’re sick of the form
We’re a swastika, we tend to get bored

Mutually assured destruction
A cradle in a grave where we can cock our guns

I’ll drag you down, if you’ll drag me down too

Mutually assured destruction
Eventually the victory will come down
