My God is better than yours
|
And the walls of my house are so thick I hear nothing at all
|
I followed you out in the storm
|
But it carried you off
|
And I burned every picture of yours,
|
Was that not enough?
|
My gun is bigger than yours
|
So let's arm the masses and see what the bastards do then
|
Walking tall once set us apart,
|
now we're down on all force
|
Do you cry my name in the dark, like I do yours
|
These storms are getting stronger now truss all bend and wait
|
Lightning hits the power goes out in the fray
|
As the waves crash high and the shoreline disappears
|
I will scream to the sky: Hey, people live here!
|
My dreams are not unlike yours
|
They long for the safety and break like a glass chandelier
|
But there's laughter and all about love
|
Just past the edge of our fears
|
And there's chaos when push comes to shove
|
But it's music to my ears
|
May you be in Heaven before the devil knows you're dead
|
May these winds be always at your back
|
Cuz when we're all just ghosts and the madness overtakes us
|
We will all look at the ashes and say: People lived here!
|
From the penthouse to the holy martyr
|
Sea to shining sea
|
From the coffins full of kinder gardeners
|
Is this what you call free
|
From the hate that drips from all your crosses
|
Are your hands so clean
|
And the wildfire and it's spreading far
|
From sea to shining sea
|
When we're all just ghosts and the madness overtakes us
|
I will scream to the sky, yeah I'll scream to the sky
|
Yeah I'll scream to the sky: Hey, people live here!
|
