from a heaven home
high above the highest bidder
for the good Lord's throne

a concert of kings
as the white sea snaps
at the heels of a soft prayer
whispered"

Run for the cover, Millennium's here
Bearing the standard of confusion and fear
Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain
Though they may promise, they only bring pain
Blood in the sand, a cry in the street
Now the cycle is nearly complete
Ten thousand years, and nothing was learned
No turning back, now the wheel has turned"

And with it pain,
And it's headed my way.
Ah, sometimes I grow so tired,
But I know I've got one thing I got to do."

Has the trees in constant motion
With a flash of silver leaves
As they're rocking in the breeze

Stuck between his teeth
A vague sensation quickens
In his young and restless heart
And a bright and nameless vision
Has him longing to depart

With your buildings and your eyes
Autumn woods and winter skies
You move me
You move me
Open sea and city lights
Busy streets and dizzy heights
You call me
You call me"

But the hangman isn't hangin'
And they put you on the street"

Feels like we're running out of time

Don't get discouraged, don't be afraid, we can
Make it through another day
Make it worth the price we pay
The Good Book says it's better to give than to receive
I do my best to do my part
Nothin's in my pockets I got nothin' up my sleeve

Keep up your spirit, keep up your faith, baby
I am counting on you
You know what you've got to do"

Well there's a hundred miles of desert lies between his hide and mine
I don't need no food and no water, Lord, 'cause I'm running out of time
Fightin', killin', wine and women, gonna put me to my grave
Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin', nothing left to save
But my life
Oo..ooo Ooooo Ah ah ah
Oo..ooo Ooooo Ah ah ah"

Ones like you ain't never seen "
