silverbutter - the cull lyrics

[intro]
waking up the day i knew the world was dead and gone
and i was suffocating thinking nothing would go wrong
follow cracking footpaths, find me somewhere i belong
please tell them it was tragic, and please tell them i was strong

[verse 1]
though the things i love all rot away
at least the fear will follow
watching as my fingers turn to grey
know i’ll be fine tomorrow
and the world cries out, it’s such a shame
i don’t feel any sorrow
life is just a library and i’ll
give back the time i’ve borrowed
when the herd of cattle is erased
the farmer sheds his sorrow
when there’s nothing left, then who’s to blame?
virtue’s an empty hollow
children in the playground learn the way
one leads and one will follow
and the world will turn again a day
you’ll do the same
you’ll do the same
you’ll do the same
you’ll be the same
[pre+chorus]
i came alive
the day you died
my thoughts are mine, now
when lies rely
on living eyes
my body’s mine, now

[chorus]
and i won’t do this again
won’t do this again
there’s quiet at the end
quiet at the end
no longer to pretend
longer to pretend
no longer to amend
longer to amend
and i won’t do this again
won’t do this again
there’s quiet at the end
quiet at the end
no longer to pretend
longer to pretend
no longer to amend
longer to amend
[verse 2]
though the things i love all rot away
the things you hate live on
watching as my fingers turn to grey
now you are dead and gone
and the world cries out, it’s such a shame
their grief’s an empty song
life is just a library and i’ll
burn all that you did wrong
when the herd of cattle is erased
we call the farmer strong
when there’s nothing left, then who’s to blame?
a deed you can’t prolong
children in the playground learn the way
life’s just a knife withdrawn
and the day will turn again to night
i’ll build the life
i’ll build the life
i’ll build the life
the life i want

[pre+chorus]
i came alive
the day you died
my thoughts are mine, now
when lies rely
on living eyes
my body’s mine, now
[chorus]
and i won’t do this again
won’t do this again
there’s quiet at the end
quiet at the end
no longer to pretend
longer to pretend
no longer to amend
longer to amend
and i won’t do this again
won’t do this again
there’s quiet at the end
quiet at the end
no longer to pretend
longer to pretend
no longer to amend
longer to amend

[outro]
and i won’t do this again
won’t do this again
there’s quiet at the end
quiet at the end, ah (ah+ah)
and i won’t do this again
won’t do this again
there’s quiet at the end
quiet at the end, ah (ah+ah)
