Song | Dark Ages |
Artist | Peter Bjorn and John |
Album | Darker Days |
Now the dark ages are back | |
We all spread the disease | |
Brought us down to our knees | |
Now the dark ages are back | |
No world leader pretend | |
Could predict such an end | |
And in all my days of traveling on | |
No, it never crossed my mind | |
While I tended my garden, wool in ear | |
From where I stood it seemed fine | |
But now the dark ages are back | |
All the prophets wear black | |
Love’s gone under attack | |
Now the dark ages are back | |
Ice is melting away | |
We just shut up and play | |
Money, poverty, dignity | |
Is a mix up hard to shake | |
We’ve been stomping this ground | |
For a million years | |
Now the earth’s about to break | |
I can feel it, I can see it falling apart | |
It strays and bends | |
I can’t heal it, I can’t rip it up | |
And just start over again | |
Lend a friend a hand | |
I can feel it, I can see it falling apart | |
It strays and bends | |
I can’t heal it, I can’t rip it up | |
And just start over again | |
Can you hear me? | |
We’re stuck in the dark here | |
No light and no way out | |
Can you tell me? | |
Is it way too late or | |
Too hard to make it right? | |
Lord, don’t let me down | |
Now the dark ages are back | |
Corrupt kings in the wings | |
Is what tomorrow will bring | |
Now the dark ages are back | |
The new mornings in mourn | |
How take care of their newborns? |
Now the dark ages are back | |
We all spread the disease | |
Brought us down to our knees | |
Now the dark ages are back | |
No world leader pretend | |
Could predict such an end | |
And in all my days of traveling on | |
No, it never crossed my mind | |
While I tended my garden, wool in ear | |
From where I stood it seemed fine | |
But now the dark ages are back | |
All the prophets wear black | |
Love' s gone under attack | |
Now the dark ages are back | |
Ice is melting away | |
We just shut up and play | |
Money, poverty, dignity | |
Is a mix up hard to shake | |
We' ve been stomping this ground | |
For a million years | |
Now the earth' s about to break | |
I can feel it, I can see it falling apart | |
It strays and bends | |
I can' t heal it, I can' t rip it up | |
And just start over again | |
Lend a friend a hand | |
I can feel it, I can see it falling apart | |
It strays and bends | |
I can' t heal it, I can' t rip it up | |
And just start over again | |
Can you hear me? | |
We' re stuck in the dark here | |
No light and no way out | |
Can you tell me? | |
Is it way too late or | |
Too hard to make it right? | |
Lord, don' t let me down | |
Now the dark ages are back | |
Corrupt kings in the wings | |
Is what tomorrow will bring | |
Now the dark ages are back | |
The new mornings in mourn | |
How take care of their newborns? |
