about

synthesizers trying to be guitars. take the lyrics with a grain of salt. (or imagine a depressed teenager singing them)

lyrics

five thousand leaves
getting down on their knees
to pray to a god
who`s the real disease
to make themselves weak
and the holy one pleased.
five thousand leaves
it`s autumn again.

five thousand leaves
fall down from their trees
to rot in the mud
which they want to feed
to make themselves bleed
and the dirty one pleased
five thousand leaves
itｴs autumn again.

the october sun
is present but scum
because when it`s gone
the winter's gonna come
to kill us all...

and five thousand leaves
will shiver and freeze
and pray to a god
who`s over the seas
they feel, they`re the weak
and they could never please
five thousand thieves
when autumn`s coming.

chorus
fade.
