Negative Prophet Songtext
von Suzie Stapleton

Turning white in the shade, a gun made out of yesterday
Killing time, got RSI, crossing T′s and doubting I's
They say it loud to speak of proof
They say it ten times to make it true
They sell it to the searchers, the beggars, the bored
They sell it before it′s sold to you
But the future is here
And the dawn that divides night and day is clear
Traded soul, time in lieu
Got a raise, I got nothing to lose
I got my feet up on the chair
To stop the cold come on my ears
Take a picture, take the pills
Use the filter, cure all ills
I took as much as I could fit
Onto my plate, eat into my hit
But the future is here
And the dawn that divides night and day is clear
I feel us breaking in the sun
Nobody told me we had begun


Our arms snakecoiled into the womb
Praise the negative prophet with a positive tune
Tried to break the habits, tried to break the fall
But it all happened so slowly like nothing was happening at all
Save your money, save your health
Enslave your marriage, save yourself
Pick a course, leave the road
Pay the mortgage, pull the load
Grab the young flesh while you have the chance
Put on black, rip up the card and steal the last dance
A naked oak, a white picket cage
Prehistoric longings in the modern age
Well I've been taking deep breaths, it's been a while
Between sprints up in the attic as the fox
The thoughts I shouldn′t think
They will sell you a crutch, watch you limp away
They know you can′t run, they need you to stay
Sickly creatures on Satan's earth
Praying in their rosaries and trying to buy some worth
An altered boy, on his knees screams
Oh God, do you believe in me?
But the future is here
And the dawn that divides night and day is clear
Oh God, do you believe in me?
