|
Down from the mountain out walking the flood |
|
I see the future in this setting sun |
|
Unfolded gardens uncover the earth as it was |
|
Filled with canteens and tear gas |
|
From this last voyage of us |
|
Ain't no gentlemen here hiding wings |
|
The devil himself would be puzzled to give |
|
Any reasons to sink his fingers in |
|
All this voodoo and black magic |
|
Doing the work that was his |
|
With battle songs filling their lungs |
|
Move them out, down under the sun |
|
Give them tears for cherry red blood |
|
Stack them old, we cradle them young |
|
World is crazy or maybe just holy rollers for love |
|
Split this ocean set these sails |
|
It's down to the seabed, we dazzle and fail |
|
Hereafter's bringing more funerals than fairs |
|
And it's a book of blank maps |
|
That we're using to get us there |
|
To the hilltops my daughter, my son |
|
The rescue's too little to cover the slums |
|
Cross the river deeper than it ever was |
|
There's a pause in the evening |
|
When prayers are supposed to be done |
|
With battle songs filling their lungs |
|
Move them out down under the sun |
|
Give them tears for cherry red blood |
|
Stack them old, we cradle them young |
|
World is crazy or maybe just holy rollers for love |
|
Glory, glory hallelujah, be warned |
|
God is still marching, still raising his sword |
|
Board these windows and guard your stretch of floor |
|
Something sinister's got you |
|
The minute you open the door |
|
Battle songs filling their lungs |
|
Move them out, down under the sun |
|
Give them tears for cherry red blood |
|
Stack them old, we cradle them young |
|
This world is crazy or maybe just holy rollers for love |
|
This world is crazy or maybe she's holy rollers for love |
|
This world is crazy and making us holy rollers for love |
