Gubbbish Lyrics

Can you see the future in all of its decay
Skeletons are walking
Everything is in pain
Or is just fantastic cities in the cloud
Underwater empire
Underwater empire

I'm never going to sleep
x15
I'm never going to sleep again

I'm a headless corpse
In a fear and dust
I'm gonna watch the clock
I'm gonna watch it rust
I hide the words in my mouth
And grab a poisoned kiss
I hide the words in my mouth
I try to spit out

I'm never going to sleep
x15
I'm never going to sleep again

The term "gubbish" is from Philip K Dick's book Martian Time-Slip, and is a term referring to a sort of viral entropic decay that affects everything. (It's a somewhat similar to the the term "kipple", coined by Dick in the book Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?)
