lyrics

Time is an illusion, and your lifetime is doubly so
You wait for God to find you
But he’s gone, gone, gone
Yes he’s gone gone gone…

So come on and wake the neighbors
There’s gonna be a fire fight
We can’t trust the others
Because they’re just not like us

Time for the war of the ages
Gather your saints and sages
We’re gonna show them what rage is
With our righteousness in course

Is this how we raised the boys?
Trained in someone else’s voice?
Well i’d rather hear them stay, and I’d rather their hearts beat
Keep the drama on the stage, and the fighting in the sheets
And I don’t care if he prays, but i’ve got to hear him sing

Love oh love it’s a confusion
In the battle, it’s the beast that don’t sleep
You wait, oh you wait inside that chamber
Dreaming of treasure you know you’ll never keep

So come on and pluck my heartstrings
They play a chord so lovely
It could be yours if you want it, but you better bring your guns hon
That soul soul darling, get in control oh darling
We keep it nice and charming, but i’m nothing like you’ve seen

Is this how we make the choice
Between lovers and remorse
I’d rather see him stay, and I’d rather he not cheat
Keep the drama on the stage, and the fighting in the sheets
And I don’t care if if he plays just as long as it’s with me

And i’d rather they be brave, and I’d rather that they think
I can talk at you for days, and not ever say a thing
And I’ll never see that change if I never hear you speak
