Collect the blood until it's empty
Bury the truth until it's way too late to use
All the abuse is never ending
But who's to blame when we were born to light the fuse?
(How long) will it take 'til it's over?
(How long) 'til you take everything from me?

When do we know how long we can break it?
Where do we go to have some?
Will we see it again?
We have been waiting
Feel how it goes
Been down so long that the bottoms up

How long?
How long?

Fell out of line looking for safety
Sick of the lies and all the take, take, take
Hard to believe I ever faked it
(Fuck it, it's the end of what you knew)
Time to light the fuse

(How long) will it take 'til it's over?
(How long) 'til you take everything from me

When do we know how long we can break it?
Where do we go to have some?
Will we see it again?
We have been waiting
Feel how it goes
Been down so long that the bottoms up

When do we know how long we can break it?
Where do we go to have some?
Will we see it again?
We have been waiting
Feel how it goes
Been down so long that the bottoms up

(So long) that the bottoms up
(So long) that the bottoms up

    My Interpretation

    I think this about when the you know what hits the fan, how do we react and how much further will it plow us & will we we even know it's the bottom when we reach it or are we in fact already there?
