Wash the Slate

Intro

Test the pulse

Feel the heat

Wake up

Verse 1

Paper kings on marble thrones

Selling fever to the broken bones

Blood for ballots

The check clears while the hunger groans

Pre-Chorus

Look at the ink

Look at the wire

Look at the house we set on fire

Chorus

Wash the slate

Purge the state

The heavy fist is coming too late

Tear it down

Wash the slate

Purge the state

The heavy fist is coming too late

Tear it down

Drop

Tear it down

Tear it down

Verse 2

Rifles rising in the park

Watch the shadows tearing through the dark

Border lines

Carved by brothers biting for a spark

Pre-Chorus

Look at the ink

Look at the wire

Look at the house we set on fire

Chorus

Wash the slate

Purge the state

The heavy fist is coming too late

Tear it down

Wash the slate

Purge the state

The heavy fist is coming too late

Tear it down

Drop

Tear it down

Tear it down

Bridge

No more excuses

No more delays

No more mistakes

Clean the grease off the golden door

The floor is rotten to the core

Chorus

Wash the slate

Purge the state

The heavy fist is coming too late

Tear it down

Wash the slate

Purge the state

The heavy fist is coming too late

Tear it down
