F#m A
We were born astride the grave. It was too late yesterday

We tried to do our ministry, got kicked right off the stage.

To rise up in the face of the whole human disgrace
D C#
All the souls under the soil boiling up in oil.
F#m A
Is anybody out there? Does anybody care?

It's to Hell in a handcart - we'll meet you there.

Stand up or shut up, rise up or give up,

Get up, stand up! You coming out tonight?

Wondering away, there's no wandering away

From total and utter annihilation.

From total and utter fucking annihilation.
