Official Lyrics[]
J-Dog: Chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos
Chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos
Charlie Scene: Bombs dropping on the runway, the oceans overflow
I know for certain one day, I'll see you down below
I'll find some solace someday and you'll reap what you sow
I'll see you Bloody Sunday so you can break my soul
J-Dog: Close your eyes
Blinded by the fire in the sky (Rage!)
Misguided by the tribe
Sacrificed to the Lord of the Flies
Charlie Scene: No one can save you, no one can save you
Charlie Scene and J-Dog: The chaos awaits you
Danny: I can't see tomorrow 'cause I might die today
I sing this sorrow with a smile on my face
Charlie Scene and Danny: Oh, oh
Danny: I can't see tomorrow, are we dead or alive?
When the blind lead the blind in thе…
J-Dog: Chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos
Chaos, chaos
Johnny 3 Tears: The blind lead the blind in the…
J-Dog: Chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos
Chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos
Funny Man: Ha, I'm dead inside from the grip of violence
Don't you dare close your eyelids
Break you down just to break the silence
Can you hear it? It’s too quiet
Blood on the streets but my heart beats cold
I got secrets no one knows
Death from above, death from below
I try to run, but it won't let go
Johnny 3 Tears: Everything we've ever loved gets buried underneath
Another grave for pretty slaves but you won't fucking bury me
I am the Alpha, the Omega, meet your maker
You're all just empty souls and I'm your fucking savior
No one can save you
The chaos awaits you
Danny: I can't see tomorrow 'cause I might die today
I sing this sorrow with a smile on my face
Charlie Scene and Danny: Oh, oh
Danny: I can't see tomorrow, are we dead or alive?
Johnny 3 Tears: The blind lead the blind in thе chaos
Charlie Scene and Danny: Oh, oh
Johnny 3 Tears: The blind lead the blind in thе chaos
Charlie Scene and Danny: Oh, oh
J-Dog: Chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos
Chaos, chaos
Johnny 3 Tears: The blind lead the blind in the…
J-Dog: Chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos
Chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos
