lyrics

/// A doomsday prepper doesn't believe in doomsday, but is chronically unwilling to risk the possibility ///

It's not, but if it's true
Death sends a comet
That's awful rough for you
But I'll be sitting pretty 'neath the city
A lifetime of supplies
A lifetime of watching
All the space that hides between the stars
I will not be caught off guard

It's not, but if it's true
The changeling invasion
I can see it through
A mile radius, no faces
No-one coming close
No invitations
I know what other people really are
I will not be caught off guard

And I will know the coming flood
When I feel the flowing of my blood
And a chokehold on my breath
Buckshot stars and a moonlit scythe
If it ain't living at least it's life
If only sudden death
Oh, how does anybody do anything?

But if we're going down
The wind will sing my rubber ring to ground
And the cold won't reach my heart
I will not be caught off guard
