I think I had it coming
But you never know
You just never know
The cracks in this foundation;
Where the problems grow
The blatant discontent;
Here we go
The fear and resentment;
Let it grow
I WOKE UP IN HELL!
BUT I PULLED MYSELF BACK OUT NOW
AND WATCHED THE WORLD TURN GREY
DON'T TURN AROUND
I WOKE UP IN HELL
BUT I PULLED MYSELF AWAY
I ain't got no god to guide me
I still welcome strangers kindly
I feel something but I don't know
And I ain't no fuckin' prophet.
But I got a message for the world
I can't remember the last time I heard you say that you climbed to the top of the scaffolds at midnight and watched the world turn grey
THESE FUCKING LIMBS
WILL CEASE TO SWING
WHEN ALL THE HEAVENS ABOVE RIP OPEN TO LET ME IN
