Some things last longer than you think they will;
There are some kind of things you can never kill
If the bible is right, the world will explode
Well, they're not showing any lights tonight;
And there's no moon.
I don't mind a reasonable amount of trouble
He bought me with a price,;
Freed me from the pit,;
Full of emptiness and wrath;
And the fire that burns in it.
You cast your spell and I went under,;
I find it so difficult to leave.
In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
We're both just one too many mornings;
An' a thousand miles behind.
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
I was all right 'til I fell in love with you
It's the last temptation;
The last account;
The last time you might hear the sermon on the mount,;
The last radio is playing.
Cities on fire, phones out of order
You think you can hide but you're never alone,;
Ask Lot what he thought when his wife turned to stone.
Then she says, "I know you're an artist, draw a picture of me!";
I say, "I would if I could, but, ;
I don't do sketches from memory."
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,;
I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
I must be guilty of something,;
You just whisper it into my ear.
You breathed on me and made my life a richer one to live,;
When I was deep in poverty you taught me how to give
Ain't no reason to go anywhere.
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand;
In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.
Some things are too hot to touch;
The human mind can only stand so much
Nations are angry, cursed are some,;
People are expecting a false peace to come.
My conscience is beginning to bother me today.
It was true that in his later years he would not carry a gun;
"I'm around too many children," he'd say, "they should never know of one."
Dark Beauty;
Meet me at the border late tonight
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,;
It's done with a flick of the wrist.
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
