Can you hear the shaking
Of a new world on its knees
The angels are among us
At a time we all beg please
Race with me to anarchy
A place we know too well
The journey will be glorious
The ending In a cell
Anarchy is all I have
It’s beautiful this way
I can’t see the darkness
For my eyes have burned away
Laugh with me on dead leaves
The coldest heart I know
We’ll laugh about the times we had
When they told us it would snow
So race with me to anarchy
A place you know so well
The journey has its moments
Come meet demons where they dwell
Anarchy is all I have
It’s tender in its way
I can’t see your tears
For my eyes have burned away
I have been so stupid
But meglomania has its charms
For every clever man there is
Is a man with empty arms
So race with me to anarchy
A place I know to well
The journey will be trechourous
Our decent will be hell
Anarchy is all I have
It’s painful when I show
My heart is paved with darkness
For my love I know will go
