Lyrics

[00:11.730] The emptiness that we confess
[00:13.920] In the dimmest hour of day
[00:17.100] In Automatown they make a sound
[00:19.960] Like the low sad moan of prey
[00:23.060] The bitter taste the hidden face
[00:25.830] Of the lost forgotten child
[00:28.800] The darkest need the slowest speed
[00:31.810] The debt unreconciled
[00:34.700] These photographs mean nothing
[00:37.460] To the poison that they take
[00:40.550] Before a moment's glory
[00:43.370] The light begins to fade
[00:58.580] The awful cost of all we lost
[01:01.090] As we looked the other way
[01:03.870] We've paid the price of this cruel device
[01:06.880] Till we've nothing left to pay
[01:09.940] The river goes where the current flows
[01:12.740] The light we must destroy
[01:15.870] Events conspire to set afire
[01:18.840] The methods we employ
[01:21.620] These dead men walk on water
[01:24.130] Cold blood runs through their veins
[01:27.440] The angry river rises
[01:30.070] As we step into the rain
[02:14.430] These photographs mean nothing
[02:16.780] To the poison that they take
[02:19.970] The angry river rises
[02:22.880] As we step into the rain
