Martijn Westerholt - The Glory and the Scum lyrics

[Verse] We all live in unforgiving precarious ways If it bleeds it leads Is all we seem to hear today Thorns remain while flowers fade [Chorus] Monster Such a noble novelty Monster Such a proper prodigy Monster It is all enrolled in you and me [Verse] Either wasteland or wonderland Look at what we've done Take a step back Shake your head at what we have become We're the glory and the scum [Chorus] Monster Sewer of uncertainty Monster Creator of entropy Monster It is all enrolled in you and me [Chorus] Monster Polluter of dignity Monster Glory and the scum are we Monster Oh the best and worst is all in me
