lyrics

it’s the beginning of the end
and I’ve fallen like a soldier
the band has left the stage
and the great romance is over
been tryin to find a friend
when everyone’s a stranger
I turn on the screen
and it tells me I’m in danger
and I don’t go to church
cause I don’t need a savior
what do I need saving from
is it really such a drag to be here
they’re all tryin to get out
while they can
maybe babe we’re in the promised land
I feel lucky to be alive
I’ve looked death right in the eyes

oh lord
oh lord

what if they won’t let me in
what if I don’t make it to heaven

it’s the beginning of the end
and the darkness changes shapes now
we’re back and forth
through these dimensions
at a rate so fast it stays now
I won’t conform to the illusion
find beauty in the gray clouds
everything is prostituted
takes all your energy just to get out
and in their eyes you see they’re slippin
every shadow casts a doubt
I’ve never been one for forgiving
I guess it’s time to lay that down
everyone can feel it’s ending
and our spirits cling to the earth
born again like a cicada
and forever we will return

oh lord
oh lord

goodbye you age of innocence
you’ll have to carry me in
I gave my all to the wind

it’s the beginning of the end
and the final curtain’s drawing
the dreamers dip their pens
in the blood of a new morning
and the actor feeds their vice
with the crowd of dead applauding
the world’s at war with itself
the masqueraders plotting
there’s so much to see outside
the realm of your thinking
never underestimate the power
of what happens in the meantime
the pursuit of happiness
you forget what you were made of
it’s weightless all the risk
promise me you’ll never give up

oh lord
oh lord

my heart is calling again
back to the state of no mindness
I’m going to live in each moment
and nothing will truly ever end
