From the Dead Lyrics
Homecoming parade
Welcome home my friend
There'll be no more sleeping on this forest floor
Open heaven's door
Around you, 'round you
Around you
'round you [x2]
Around you
Comin' 'round the bend
Welcome home my friend
There'll be no more weeping like a canyon gorge
Hear your lion roar
Around you, 'round you
I can see you shining like a morning sun
Hear your lion roar [x2]
Around you, 'round you
I can see the parade
Welcome home my friend
We come back to history in present times
Watch your watch unwind
We've been turning mysteries to nursery rhymes
Sigils and more signs
Around you
Watch your watch unwind
Back from the dead
I can see the end
Welcome home my friend
Welcome home my friend
There'll be no more sleeping on this forest floor
Open heaven's door
Around you
'round you [x2]
Around you
Welcome home my friend
There'll be no more weeping like a canyon gorge
Hear your lion roar
Hear your lion roar [x2]
Welcome home my friend
Watch your watch unwind
We've been turning mysteries to nursery rhymes
Sigils and more signs
Around you
Watch your watch unwind
I can see the end

This song fully captures the feeling of the alt-right's support for Trump and regressive policies in general. Bush-type supporters have been feeling left out by Obama, sleeping the forest floor, but now they can hear their lion roar, a definite Trump reference. The most brilliant line here is "watch your watch unwind" as we go back to civil-rights era clashes and obsessing about the scary Russians (sigils is another word for "sickle" like the ole hammer and sickle. Then you look at that cover, a bunch of kids trying to act scary, and its such a good picture of the current White House, so much blustering and antagonism, but under the surface its just big-business-as-usual. The funny thing is this was probably written before the primaries even started. So the word about Trump, the media product, on NBC for 10 years, on right wing radio constantly, covered obsessively by CNN during the early primaries, was known by ranking people in the industry. When he gets on your nerves, think of this album's cover.
@quitarist Holy f_ck you need help. This song, nor any Faith No More song, has ANYTHING to do with Trumpty Dumpty. This was written far before the 2016 election, and the band members are all very much against Trump and his nonsense.
