lyrics

I’m gonna dig a hole
to the magma beneath the heavy mantle
Grab a plastic shovel
And burn it down to the handle
When I get there I will drink it until I get heartburn
And save a lot of money because I can’t afford a doctor

I will return from the bowels
a shiny, obsidian monster
Imbued with the ability to destroy things with fire
And the screams of the defeated will bellow like a choir
Shattering the barrier between delusions and grandeur

And I will be the destroyer of the world that has festered in a bedroom
All damp and dark from never leaving it to vacuum of the black hole will be quenched When the herald made of silver returns with only good news

The apocalypse has come and none of the bullshit made it
Ragnarok has come and it did all the dishes
The rapture has come and it chose to be better
The end of days has come and we’re returning it to sender
