Room 101 Lyrics - Swansong - Carcass

(Music: Steer) 

(Lyrics: Walker) 

Don't claim to be a prophet 

Don't claim to read the stars 

But I can see a future 

Mapped out in scars 

Look to the skies 

Keep praying to your gods 

Your only salvation 

Will come in the shape of the bomb 

No clockwork orange 

The doom watch ticks 

There's no second coming 

Only final conflict 

Blind pessimism? 

Only time will tell 

The cold hard reality 

Is that this world had gone to hell 

And this is where I belong 

In my room one zero one 

As I sit here all alone 

In my own private year zero 

These numbers branded 

Embedded in the mind 

How can your herald a future 

When it's already arrived? 

Keep looking to the skies 

Keep waiting for your lord 

You fools there's no second coming 

To redeem you all 

And this is where I belong 

In my room one zero one 

As I sit here all alone 

In my own private year zero 

(leads) 

Don't claim to be a prophet 

Don't claim to sight the stars 

But I can read the future 

In anguished mental scars 

I have no faith 

In anything that you hold dear 

The future is ours 

Only in sweat and tears 

And this is where I belong 

In my room one zero one 

As I sit here all alone 

In my own private year zero 

And this is where I belong 

In my room one zero one 

As I sit here all alone 

In my own private year zero
