Days of Decision

The shadows of doubt are in many a mind
Looking for an answer that they're never gonna find
But please understand you're running out of time
For these are the days of decision

Games of stone you cannot afford
Dark is the danger that's knocking on the door
And with far-reaching rockets you can't reach anymore
For these are the days of decision

In the face of the people who know they're gonna win
With a strength greater than the power of the wind
You can't stand around when the ice is growing thin
For these are the days of decision

The mobs of anger are roaming the streets
Aiming down at the police on the beach
In town after town, you know it will repeat
For these are the days

Now there's a warning of fire and flood
And there's a warning of the bullet and the blood
For the three bodies buried in the Mississippi mud
Mmmm-hmmm, decision

There's a change in the wind, a split in the road
Do what's right so you can do what you are told
The prize to be won will be held up by the bold
Yeah, these are the days of decision
Oh, these are the days of decision
