Pageantry Songtext
von Fatigue

They told me you could see the future
Like it was in the past
They told me you were round the corner
This cannot last

They stand before me an apostate
Their time has come
I raise the crook you skulk in silence
My smoking gun

Someday you′ll see
Your idolatry
Rely on me

My word is true
So why are you
Defying me

You'll wash ashore
You′ll drift no more
No wandering


I shall not cease
My final peace
I conquer thee

You'll miss me with your lack of graces
Your want of social mores
I give you something to aspire in
My permanently shuttered doors

If only you could understand me
Your life is a curse
If only you'd not reprimand me
I must purge

Someday you′ll see
Your idolatry
Rely on me

My word is true
So why are you
Defying me

You′ll wash ashore
You'll drift no more
No wandering


I shall not cease
My final peace
I conquer thee

You stop the rain
You stop the world
You stop my reign
I′ll stop the world

So don't stop my reign
For the good of the world
Stay out of my way,
Churl

Someday you′ll see
Your idolatry
Rely on me

My word is true
So why are you
Defying me

You'll wash ashore
You′ll drift no more
No wandering

I shall not cease
My final peace
I conquer thee
