So much of this sickness, far too much to witness
(I wish a God-shaped fist would fix this)
Reality breaks you every day
(Yes I know you’re dying dear, drowning inside your fear, the same this time as every year there’s no joy in these darkest of days here)
When stumbling blocks get used in foundation, the downward spiral of a nation
First comes a bloodb-ath
And after that the aftermath
But Jesus hears the accusation
~Chorus~
I-I know, you’re waiting there f-or me
Across the deepest water
Beyond everything I can see
Life is short, but time is shorter
(2X)
(Time is shorter)
(Remember to never surrender your colors like towers you know that we stand together, we shine the light in the darkest of cellars, we’re searching out voices we’ll hear forever, march on soldiers you know you belong, we kick the dark ‘til it bleeds the dawn, we’ll never forget you the beat goes on, we strangle out screams that bleed our songs)
(Try act move don’t relax win, decisively break what don’t fit in, trust and I wait expectantly for reply swim, turn corners and dive, deep into water that’s breathable deep into water that’s alive, shhh, I think something’s about to happen, the conductor’s hands are held high)
