Rage in Eden

[Verse 1] We sit and watch these lifeless forms Stark and petrified The high suspense of an empty stage Drawing in clutching to its breast With murmured words we sigh and focus on the main facade [Verse 2] Beyond the hard reluctant windows News from magazines We wrote their names on books we'd borrowed As if to bring us closer still And threw it all away to focus on the main facade Rage in Eden jigsaw sequence But no one could see the end [Chorus: Backwards] (Ooo, I remember, death in the afternoon Oh, I remember, death in the afternoon) [Verse 3] And they were the new gods And they shone on high Their heavy perfume of the night Sucked them down in red tide All is through the looking glass focus on the main facade Rage in Eden jigsaw sequence But no one could see the end [Chorus: Backwards] (Ooo, I remember, death in the afternoon Oh, I remember, death in the afternoon) [Verse 4] Disciples of the new way Portraits in the sand See when they run their longest mile Holding caps in wet hand Eyes upon them try to focus on the main facade Rage In Eden jigsaw sequence But no one could see the end [Chorus: Backwards] (Ooo, I remember, death in the afternoon Oh, I remember, death in the afternoon Ooo, I remember, death in the afternoon Oh, I remember, death in the afternoon Ooo, I remember, death in the afternoon Oh, I remember, death in the afternoon Ooo, I remember, death in the afternoon Oh, I remember, death in the afternoon) (radio static)
