The Gods Hit The Bricks

from The Men Of A Thousand Excuses by The Tomorrow File

lyrics

The Gods hit the bricks now its raining injustice
And we're soaking it in through our skin like sunshine
Like Domitian hacked into hundreds of pieces
There is a logic in this

Show me why is it that I should
Matter more than one drop of blood?

I see crystalized wisdom ossified in the heavens
But pulling rabbits from hats is like sand the gearbox
I see tenderness dangling from a gutted out ribcage
There is a logic in this

Show me why is it that I should
Matter more than one drop of blood?

Is it really such a hard luck story?
August majesty
The sin is coming down in buckets
Even if I wanted to I just don't know how to stop it
This is the just reward
For arrogant souls
