The Execution Of All Things - Rilo Kiley

Soldiers, come quickly

I feel the earth beneath my feet

I’m feeling badly, it’s not an attempt at decency

And if you’re well off, well, then I’m happy some for you

But I’d rather not celebrate my defeat

And humiliation here with you

Someone, come quickly

This place was built for moving out

Leave behind buildings, the city planners got mapped out

Bring with you history and make your hard earned feast

Then we’ll go to Omaha to work and exploit

The booming music scene

And humility

And we’ve been talking all night

Oh god, come quickly

The execution of all things

Let’s start with the bears and the air

And mountains, rivers, and streams

Then we’ll murder what matters to you

And move on to your neighbors and kids

Crush all hopes of happiness with disease

'Cause of what you did

And lastly, you’re all alone with nothing left but sleep

But sleep never comes to you, it’s the guilt

And forever wakefulness of the weak

It’s just you and me…

The execution of all things

The execution of all things

The execution of all things
