Lyrics

Either you are in or you're out
This cannot be spoken about
A boat awaits to carry you
Between all that you used to be and now
I can see the scar on your chin
You paint it white to cover it as if it was a sin
No matter what your name has been before
You have a new one now
It's unescapable, it's a new era
This time you will open the door
The seal has not been broken before
Put on your mother's gown
That you've been hiding in your drawer for so long
Cut your hair and wash your face and hands
This is where you belong
It's unescapable, it's a new era
Here comes a new era
Here comes the new angels
Here comes the new Jesus
Here comes the new Judas
Here comes the new power
Here comes the new danger
Here comes a new desperation
And it's unescapable
It's unescapable, it's a new era
