Sun sets 'cross the ocean
I'm a thousand miles from anywhere My pocketbook and my heart both just got stolen And the sun act like she don't even care The wind blows cold when you reach the top It feels like someone's face is stuck to the bottom of my shoe I got a plastic Jesus, a cordless telephone for every corner of my room Got everybody but you telling me what to do But I've been down so long Oh, it can't be longer still I've been down for so long That the end must be drawing near I look to everybody but me to answer my prayers 'Til I saw an angel in a bathroom who said she saw no one worth saving anywhere And a blind man on the corner said it's simple, like flipping a coin Don't matter what side it lands on if it's someone else's dime But I've been down so long Oh, it can't be longer still We've been down for so long That the end must be drawing near I take a trip, I catch a train, I catch a plane I got a ticket in my hand And then a man takes my money And like cattle we all stand But we've been down so long Oh, it can't be longer still We've been down for so long The end must be... I know the end must be... Oh, I know the end must be drawing near |

Ophelia drowned in the water
Crushed by her own weight Hitler loved little blue-eyed boys And it drove him to hate Birds always grow silent before the night descends 'Cause nature has a funny way of breaking what does not bend A hero's torso built of steel and Novocain His heart a bitter beat inside a bloodless frame There was a hole inside his soul a manicure could not fill So he found himelf a whore to love while daisies chocken in the window sill We've made houses for hatred It's time we made a place Where people's souls may be seen and made safe Be careful with each other These fragile flames For innocence can't be lost It just needs to be maintained A small town in Ohio Two boys are filled with violence And darkness spreads its legs for hate and ignorance We are given to a god to put our faith therein But to be forgiven, we must first believe in sin We've made houses for hatred It's time we made a place Where people's souls may be seen and made safe Be careful with each other These fragile flames For innocence can't be lost It just needs to be maintained I want to live bravely and love without fear I want alwys to feel the wings of grace near We all will be Christed when we hear ourselves say We are that to which we pray We've made houses for hatred It's time we made a place Where people's souls may be seen and made safe Be careful with each other These fragile flames We've made houses for hatred It's time we made a place Where people's souls may be seen and made safe Be careful with each other These fragile flames We've made houses for hatred It's time we made a place Where people's souls may be seen and made safe Be careful with each other These fragile flames It's time we made a place Where people's souls may be seen and made safe Be careful with each other These fragile flames For innocence can't be lost It just needs to be maintained |
