Strung out falling from the big time
Welcome to the infinite black skies
Brain clans fractured identity
Fragments and scattered debris
Thought contagion
Thought contagion
Fall down long winds are counted out
Prop me up before I black out
Withdraw before you're out of time
A clean slate and buried war crimes
You've been bitten by a true believer
You've been bitten by someone who's hungrier than you
You've been bitten by a true believer
You've been bitten by someone's false beliefs
Thought contagion
Thought contagion
They'll never do what you want them to
Give it up and watch them break through
It's too late for a revolution
Brace for the final solution
Thought contagion
Thought contagion
You've been bit by a true believer
You've been bit by someone who's hungrier then you
You've been bit by a true believer
You've been bitten by someone's false beliefs

Strung out falling from the big time
Welcome to the infinite black skies
It's too late for a revolution
