Memphis May Fire - Quantity Is Their Quality Lyrics

Lyrics Quantity Is Their Quality - Memphis May Fire



I do not know the American Gentlemen
God forgive me for putting two such words together
Undone, you're no different than all the rest
A life full of greed with no heart in your chest
Full to your throats, you cry out starvation!
Oh, what a joke and waste of creation
You are the only one to blame, for all the choices you made
I'll lower your body down into an open grave
And then let the vultures have their way with you
We'll take you by surprise and spill your blood like wine
Scarlet stains upon the flesh will end the night
Rest your head and soon you will find
Beauty is young and will die in time
When I look out my window
I see a nation filled with disgrace
All the thieves and the liars
And you're there with a smirk on you're face!
Everything you say rings hollow
But you will tell your stories (again and again)
Sell your half truths with a smile
Take and inject it, inject it!
You think that we don't know a thing
But I can see straight through you
You think that we believe everything that you say
My God, things aren't looking good
Now the tables have turned
And you see this, you see this
For what it really is
And then now the tables have turned
And you see this, you see this
It all seems so out of place (looks like you've got it all figured out)
We think that we're safe right here (brave from a distance for all to marvel)
And let you mismanage it all (and admire the sound)
For once now I see it so clear
Don't even try to run because (These lines were drawn for your days on end)
You will find that we are not blind and we're not amused (so, get out of focus and blend in)
Say "yeah, this is just the way that it goes" (failure is what you've become)
But everyone knows (you're a failure, failure!)
Rest your head and soon you will find
Beauty is young and will die in time
Rest your head and soon you will find
Beauty is young and will die in time
Rest your head
