Bringer Of Greater Things

Look at our collection of hands Heads, and feet to see where we've been Embrace this parody The ending of things you can believe We'll drive you until you're skin and bones And when we finally reach the end Fall into our open arms Accept our tears of sympathy Make way for emptiness A descent that never ends Until the one last living thing Is the next thing to go You should know by now That we never come in peace Endure this tragedy Wrap yourselves in our fantasies When you think of all you've lost Weigh it with what you've gained in trade We've given the greatest gift This savior that will never rise The bringer of greater things Creator of brighter days The city cops, a sub-zero night A midnight ride out of town The passenger was found frozen in the snow Our enduring legacy We bring a better way Our handshake crushing bone The blankets that keep you warm We've soiled with disease The bringer of greater things Creator of brighter days The hollow songs you'll sing At the ending of your day (Dedicated to Rodney Naistus, Neil Stonechild, and Lawrence Wegner, murdered by members of the Saskatoon Police Department.)
