Erasure

[Verse 1]

Open air asylum

Another shooting again

No second to waste in the states

Breathe it out, suck it in

Feeling within

Yoga mats in the military base

I say what I want

Musk steeps from the sheets

Crime stays in the suites

People burning in the streets

No seconds at all

Dissolved 'em, keep 'em small

Watching it all come down

[Chorus]

It goes on and on and on

Erasure

It goes on and on and on

Erasure

[Verse 2]

Broken prayer, silence voice

Clean 'em out, take aim

Tell 'em all they're not being displaced

Disarray far away

All watch as they obey

Just anothеr loss of faith

Blood soaked urban sprawl

Golan missile scrawl

Files, thеy lost 'em all

Keep 'em feeling small

Ghosts from pinochet

Unearth the disarray

Won't pray this one away

[Chorus]

It goes on and on and on

Erasure

It goes on and on and on

Erasure

It goes on

It goes on

[Bridge]

They know we know they lie

They know we know they lie

They know we know they lie

They know we know they lie

They know we know they lie

They know we know they lie

They can't erase the past

They can't erase the past

[Outro]

They cannot erase the past

They cannot erase the past

They cannot erase the past

They cannot erase the past
