“Well nothing here looks new to me
But a score of mothers’ sons
Caught ‘tween the devil and the deep blue sea”
At a time when the youngest generations neither seek advise, nor heed direction, the pillars of culture have begun to bow, as it seems like heaven is falling, and who’s arms will raise up to palm the stars as they plummet to the crust?
“As I walk beneath the valley I shall fear no evil For thanks to King George and his rainbow cabinet Today murder is legal God I know that it’s wrong To kill my brother for what he hasn’t done And as the planes blacken the sky It sounds like heaven is falling…”
“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 rightWelcome to the new Dark Ages Yeah, I hope you’re living right These are the new Dark Ages And the world might end tonightNow 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 sightThe 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 itWelcome to the new Dark Ages Yeah, I hope you’re living right These are the new Dark Ages And the world might end tonightSo, how do you sleep? There’s nothing to keep This is deepBecause we’re animals with golden rules Who, who can’t be moved by rational views, yeahWelcome 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”
