Peep through the door
|
It seems as though the grass was much greener before
|
The dead life has been washed upon the sea shore
|
Money and greed deluded what is truly pure
|
And yet our flesh keeps screeching out for more
|
|
Now you're trapped
|
A hole in the ozone about to make the world collapse
|
Pollution fills the air and minds with bullet twisted facts
|
Midnight is now upon us people righteous laws are coming back
|
|
Don't turn your head away cause you can't get away
|
Your mind is lost because your spirit has been led astray
|
Don't ever say you gave it all if you ain't gave it all
|
Just fade it in the hazy purple twilight
|
No more time I tried to warn you all it's now approaching midnight
|
|
Panic's in the air
|
Some jumping out of buildings others on their knees in prayer
|
Some cry out to the sky and yell they aren't quite prepared
|
You looked god in the face and said forgive me all he did was stare.
|
|
Now you can run,
|
But where you gonna hide from all the power of the sun?
|
The cosmic reprecussions of what human kind has done
|
No understanding of the fullness everything is simply one
|
|
Soon to be none again so that new life can come again
|
Illusions rule the mind your soul is never gonna end
|
So don't pretend you gave it all if you ain't gave it all
|
Just fade it in the hazy purple twilight
|
No more time I tried to warn you all it's now approaching midnight
|
|
So I bid farewell.
|
No more good times or bad times, no more heaven no more hell.
|
Now brace yourself for impact it's a half hour to twelve
|
Complete in total darkness empty space is where you're left to dwell.
|
|
And all you had to do was live today for your tomorrow
|
But now it's over and you're drowning deep inside your sorrow
|
You could've led but instead you confirmed and chose to follow
|
So once again I bid farewell
|
|
There's only seconds left you'd like to second guess
|
But through your foolish ways you've literally beckoned death
|
So just don't say you gave it all if you ain't gave it all
|
Just fade it in the hazy purple twilight
|
No more time I tried to warn you all it's now approaching midnight
|
