March of the Rabbit

from the fifth circle by ilyAIMY

/

lyrics

Frightnened beyond belief
It had no mind
The rabbit brought itself to bear
On his whitened eye
Frustrated, grew in numbers
Multiplied we keep them running

We focused on his head
His brain was reeling, it's all too real
Gunshot spoke
Focused on his lack of mind
He came dying
He came dying, we helped him die

Frustrated beyond belief
The knife blade it simply went too deep
The rabbit's eyes rolled
The burrows were flooding
And heads were rolling
Or going to roll
And the alleys were flooding
And I've just about reached that point

"The city burns tonight!" I cried
Paws lying at my side
I was lying soiled on my side
Glamour worn to skin
I am all that's left of sin
And I have lost my fight
Yeah I have lost my fight

Taking the great white tower
Wasn't as easy as it looked
Their man kept leaping back
(Man kept leaping back)
His eyes were full of doubt
But his teeth were full of rage
And he came flying
He came flying so high

It was a grey day
Much greyer than you might think
The heat was too much
They all dropped who couldn't take the heat
The rabbits dropped like rabbits
And you know they dropped like flies
But they kept on coming
Kept them coming

"The city burns tonight" I cried
Paws at my side
I was lying soiled on my side
Glamour worn to skin
I am all that's left of sin
And I have lost my fight
Yeah I have lost my fight

The march of the rabbit took too long
Satisfaction was guarenteed
They marched too long
They starved too long
They left the rabbit to the dead
They were lying rotting on their sides
The hare left their skulls
They still line that
They still line that
They still line that
They still line that road

The cross I bear
Is too much to bear
I fear I hear
It all falling through
We are watching
We are watching with our bright pink eyes
Our bright pink eyes, well
Frightened beyond belief
It multiplied
Heads were rolling
And you know we dropped like flies
We burned the tower down
We burned the tower down
We burned the tower down
We burned the tower down

"The city burns tonight!" I cried
Paws at my side
I was lying soiled on my side
And I've been left for dead
More than once I've lost my head
But I won't lose my fight
No I won't lose my fight
No I won't lose my fight
I won't lose my fight
