lyrics

A hollow promise on a rainbow hung
Among other betrayals
Nostradamus couldn’t hold his tongue
He tried to warn us but failed

Until that diluvian tide is down to a trickle
You think that you’ve earned it
You can blame it on forces outside
But the world ain’t so fickle
You just might deserve it

Holofernes could’ve kept his head
Instead, he had to have Judith
Her blade found purchase and away he bled
It’s said he ought’ve eschewed it

Until that diluvian tide is down to a trickle
You think that you’ve earned it
You can blame it on forces outside
But the world ain’t so fickle
You just might deserve it

As a matter of course
Mankind rarely reflects unless forced
So don’t go expecting remorse…
