here we go falling over
the edge now
the great divide
is split wide open
tell me which side of hell
you think we'll land on
if we make it to the pearly gates
tell me will our accolades
earn for us an eternal date in heaven?
what filthy piles of sand
our lives make
if they just sit beside
the shore and never change
we will take what you believe
and turn it into a forest
give me a set of matches
and we will sing a chorus
that we burned down everything
that kept us back
so let's loosen up
the rope tangled around
your throat now
like flowers of spring
your words will bloom out
because there destined to go
upon the mountain tops
nobody cares what you believe
until they see what you do
take a step off of the porch
there is a dream to walk through
it's only when you die
to yourself
that you are made new
danny signed up for war
but didn't know
if all the blood
he'd spill on the ground
would change a thing at all
