The Pretty Reckless - House On A Hill lyrics
rate me(Intro)
We are living in an artificially induced state of consciousness that resembles sleep
The poor and the underclass are growing
Racial justice and human rights are nonexistent
They have created a repressive society and we are their unwitting accomplices
Their intention to rule rests with the annihilation of consciousness
(Verse)
Somewhere in the end of all this hate
There's a light ahead
That shines into this gray that's in the end of all this pain
In the night ahead there's a light upon this
(Chorus)
House on a hill, the living, living still
Their intention is to kill and they will, they will
But the children are doin' fine, I think about them all the time
Until they drink their wine and they will, they will, they will
(Verse)
Somewhere in the end we're all insane
To think that light ahead can save us from this
Grave that's in the end of all this pain
In the night ahead there's a light upon this
(Chorus)
House on a hill, the living, living still
Their intention is to kill and they will, they will
But the children are doin' fine, I think about them all the time
Until they drink their wine and they will, they will, they will
(Interlude)
I am not afraid
I won't burn out in this place
My intention is to fade and I will, I will
(Chorus)
In this house on a hill, the dead are living still
Their intention is to kill and they will, they will
Keep your children safe inside, out of pocket, out of mind
Until they drink their wine and they will, they will, they will
