Only a fool would wear the crown One day the kids will tear it down Yeah Verse 1: Can’t you see the clocks are ticking away? They try to fit more hours into the day To see that you was crunching numbers away We’re running out breath just to keep up the pace And when did the revolver start the race? When did the revolver start the race? Accelerated architecture creates a manufactured lifestyle for the deranged They swallow up the green and build up the gray And like tomorrows kids dispose of today And when d’you think the roots will buy them out? When d’you think the roots will buy them out? Chorus 2: Crooked minds under gray skies They can’t live til something dies (the kids will tear it down) until something dies (the kids will tear it down) Crooked minds ain’t satisfied until the ground touches the sky (the kids will tear it down) touches the sky (the kids will tear it down) Verse 2: Cemetery statue stare into space sucked into a social media craze They’re looking for an answer to explain the reason why disaster strikes again A picture perfect family sits by the lake swimming in a sea of mechanical waste And can’t they see a tragedy awaits? Can’t they see a tragedy awaits? Chorus 3: Crooked minds under gray skies They can’t live til something dies (the kids will tear it down) until something dies (the kids will tear it down) Crooked minds ain’t satisfied until the ground touches the sky (the kids will tear it down) touches the sky (the kids will tear it down) We’ll tear it down Bridge: Cauterize these butchered eyes Tangled in their power lines Tear the ground up with their lives Raise the caskets in the sky Someday soon they’ll realize Nothing’s left for you and I Nothing’s left for you and I Interlude: -Edim---/--/------- Chorus 4: Similar to Intro Crooked minds have gone astray Have they never learned from yesterday? Only a fool would wear the crown One day the kids will tear it down Chorus 5: Crooked minds under gray skies They can’t live til something dies (the kids will tear it down) until something dies (the kids will tear it down) Crooked minds ain’t satisfied until the ground touches the sky (the kids will tear it down) touches the sky (the kids will tear it down) Outro: Cauterize these butchered eyes Tangled in their power lines Tear the ground up with their lives Raise the caskets in the sky Someday soon they’ll realize Nothing’s left until something dies (the kids will tear it down) until something dies (the kids will tear it down) Dm(hold) until something dies

Cette chanson aborde le thème de l’égarement des esprits dans un monde moderne où l’urgence et la superficialité dominent. Elle met en lumière la déconnexion entre les valeurs d'hier et les choix de demain, suggérant que beaucoup vivent dans une réalité fabriquée qui ne prend pas en compte les conséquences de leurs actions. Les jeunes, en particulier, sont appelés à remettre en question l'ordre établi et à briser les chaînes de ce mode de vie toxique. Le contexte de l'œuvre évoque des préoccupations contemporaines, comme l'impact des réseaux sociaux et la façon dont les générations passées ont échoué à sauvegarder un environnement sain pour l'avenir. En évoquant la tragédie imminente que cela implique, elle pousse à la réflexion sur notre responsabilité collective envers la société et la nature. Cette dénonciation se transforme en un appel à l’action pour un changement radical.
