Smashing Pumpkins - Doomsday Clock lyrics

Is everyone afraid?

Is everyone ashamed?

Their running torwards their holes to find out

Apocalyptic thieves

Are lost amongst our dead

A message to our friends, to get out

There's wagers on this fear

Ooh, ooh so clear

Depends on what you'll pay to hear

They're bound to kill us all

In white-washed halls

The jackals lick their paws

Please don't stop

It's lonely at the top

These lonely days

Will they ever stop?

This doomsday clock

Tickin' in my heart, not broken

I love life everyday, each and every way

Khafka would be proud to find out

I'm certain of the end, it's the means that has me spooked

It takes an unknown truth to get out

I guess that I'm born free, c'est le ve

I was meant to beg from my knees

Please don't stop

It's lonely at the top

These lonely days

Will they ever stop?

This doomsday clock

Tickin' in my heart

These lonely days, will they ever stop?

Gotta dig in

Gasmasks on

Wait in the sunshine overhead

If this is living, sakes alive

Well then we can't win, no one survives

Is everyone afraid?

You should be ashamed

Apocalyptic screams mean nothing to the dead

Kiss your little son to know all there is

C'mon, last call!

You should want it all!

It's lonely at the top

These lonely days, will they ever stop

This doomsday clock

These lonely days, will they ever stop

It's tickin' in my heart

Is everyone afraid?
