lyrics

Awaken from your slumber
You don't feel anything
You think you're fine, but soon you'll find
The whittler and the king
Spin sordid tales of heartache
On spinwheels made from skin
The skin is mine, and soon I'll find
The whittler is within

And all the west was won, in the sun
But all the rest is none, it's no fun

You think that you're a whittler,
But really you're a king
As you divide, and pay no mind
You don't learn anything
You'll wish that you're a wise man
As wise as wise can be
But man takes you for granted
In this crumbling monarchy

Make a run for it
Make a run for it
Make a run for the cunning, the fun of it
Make a run for it
What will you think when the ice pick smashes the ice rink
Why not me?

Come out and face the sun
Come out and face the big one
Come out, the mouth to gun
Come out and chew the big gum
Come out and beat the drum
Beat on the drum the hardest
Come out and play the song
Come and avenge the artist

Come and avenge the artist
Come and avenge the artist
Come and avenge the artist
Come and avenge the artist
