Ank the ratchet slowly to measure our inequities 
Each bone that breaks reveal a new point of stress to me 
A catalyst of suicide, a wound to be dressed 
Quiet on the set, your death has taken it's turn to be in progress 

[Solo Tony] 

Squeeze the hammer slowly to bury our honesty 
A song for dying swans reveals a path for me 
A catalyst of suicide, a wound to infect 
Our death will be appreciated, swollen tongue forever 

Laced with vitriol 
Choking on the residue we leave 

It's time to roll the bones 
Your end I must advise 
With confidence I sin 
False grieving now begins 
Belittles your demise 
In minutes just a memory of faded apparitions 

[spoken:] 
These are the final words that will be penned from me 
As empires rise, they do just fall 
And history shall forever repeat 
So now I dig deep into my black beating heart 
And with open arms welcome you to oblivion...
