Ancient Civilization - Screaming Females

I made cigarette burns in the center of your room

Outlined by the legs of a bug on its back

I poured salt from my palm in the center of your room

Slow and steadily built a bridge on your back

Ancient civilization

Bring me into your halls

Drain the river that feeds me

You just can’t wait to meet me

I’d like to ask the host, can I please stay?

Making the most of our last days

Bleed into the turn deep in the pyramids I field

Three dark stars set and sing to the dead man’s flood

All nine planets align mimicked in your dance moves

And we’re having our time left to choose

Ancient civilization

Bring me into your halls

Drain the river that feeds me

You just can’t wait to meet me

I’d like to ask the host, can I please stay?

Making the most of our last days

Even the right to live free is gone

Even the right to live free is gone

Crunch your numbers with pause yielding plausible 13

Punching cards for the gods so I’ll charge for the cause

Match the mirror’s reflection and see what I see

The mirage is in charge, we’ll show them who’s boss

Ancient civilization

Bring me into your halls

Drain the river that feeds me

You just can’t wait to meet me

I’d like to ask the host, can I please stay?

Making the most of our last days
