Where Has Everybody Gone? lyrics

Where has everybody gone?

I've got this feelin', God, am I here on my own?

Where's my support now, where's the ranks of the strong?

In this faceless crowd, where can I belong?

Everybody's gone insane to catch a plane to help the heavens closer

They want the kingdom but they don't want the king

They want his throne.

There's no time, there's no time at all.

Where has everybody gone?

With great pleasure, I sing your national song.

Because you're beautiful land will soon be long gone.

And the ashes of your memoirs will be strewn across the lawn.

Hack your face, save your case, reserve your place in the everafter

Cause hallowed halls are lined with walls

That are cracked with delirious laughter

There's no time, there's no time at all.

Where has everybody gone?

There's no time, there's no time at all.

You won't survive and soon be long gone

Gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
