Heathen - Morbid Curiosity lyrics

[Piercy/White] Drawn forth by terror, they gather to see The wreckage and the carnage, it's like a disease We read it in the papers, we see it on the news Conditioned by the media, how can we refuse? Sirens screaming into the night A victim of circumstance A blur of flashing light Out in the streets, a crowd forms to see The twisted remains of what used to be Everyday we run this deadly race Anything can happen at any time or place The future isn't certain, no matter what you do When your time has come, fate falls upon you Sirens screaming into the night A victim of circumstance A blur of flashing light Out in the streets, a crowd forms to see The twisted remains of misery Curious people attracted to d**h Capture a glimpse of someone's last breath Subject of interest for public view What happened to them could've happened to you Some people can't wait to hear it The disaster of the day It makes them feel better While their own lives decay Drawn forth by terror, they gather to see The wreckage and the carnage, it's like a disease How will this affect the future in time to come? How will they perceive us when all is said and done? Sirens screaming into the night A victim of circumstance A blur of flashing light Out in the streets, a crowd forms to see The twisted remains of what used to be Curious people attracted to d**h Capture a glimpse of someone's last breath Subject of interest for public view What happened to them might happen to you
