Milliontown

[Intro (spoken) - Thomas Daggett, "The Prophecy" (1995)]
Do you ever notice how in the Bible, whenever God needed to punish someone, or make an example, or whenever God needed a killing, he sent an angel?

Would you ever really wanna see an angel?

[Movement 1 - One Underground]
My worm cathedral, all earthy for your infestation
These little workers build me an empire
Your loyalty I burrowed out, mined by erosion
My little kingdom, ready for me now

These careful times, the aftertaste of past digestion
Get what you can now - good staff are hard to find
My bitter name, the full effect of time and tension
You utter duty, and fight to stay the same

[Movement 2 - Abracadaver]
With a cross upon the wall, I was blinded by it all
Now the faces left behind - these are no friends of mine
When your fears are cast aside, out across the great divide
Rage is part of your design, but I won’t play this time

Hero waiting in the line. here on your own
All alone...

[Movement 3 - The Only Survivors]
Why do you run and hide, here inside the lighthouse?
You lose the way, ghost of yesterday
And before you know, you’ll fade away

You and I, we will live and die; we are not the only survivors
You and me, we’re too blind to see; we are not the only survivors

Games that you people play, here inside the lighthouse
You’ll have to stay; Time, she ran away
Slipping through our fingers, time running out

You and I, we will live and die; we are not the only survivors
You and me, we’re too blind to see; we are not the only survivors

[Movement 4 - Core]
I number you; carving circles in your soul, I pull you through
As I do, cut your family ties before your eyes
Too much, too soon; early warning
Saved by the day; carried away, you’re still falling, falling

Take me over, harder, colder
I want you to be…
[?]

[Movement 5 - The Chosen Few]
Awake again and I’m alone, the thoughts I have are not my own
No one knows I’m here
The faces move around the room, their voices cut into the gloom
But they’re not listening

What’s that shadow moving? Is that a life in here?
Won’t someone please come and free me and...

Here, dead but still alive in here
Help me come alive
In here - in here...

Oh, there’s a lot I’ve got to do
It was not your place to choose
And now I lose - I lose...

[Movement 6 - Two Underground]
My worm cathedral, diseased by all this intervention
I watch them turning into things they might've been
These fatal days, corrupted by our own perfection
You’re looking to me, but there’s nothing more to say
