Nineveh
Went to the picture show
Failed to see the light
Men were arranged in rows
Waiting out the night.
A shadowy figure flows
Between them left and right
Drawing the lot they chose
Feeling it seethe inside
Here we go again
Life among the dead.
Until the night becomes tomorrow
I get pulled from the womb
The walls all fall in on cue
Hearts are broken in two
World turned cold til I drew
Closer to you
Light bars and plastic cards
Clouds that few can see.
Straying away so far from
The way that things should be
And then a guiding star
Shines a light for free.
Still wears the wounds and scars
Borne for you and me.
Reaping the things they sow
Never what they like
Livin like a broadway show
Bathed in neon light
Saying it isn't so
They can't see wrong from right.
Searchin we'll ever grow
Faith and less by sight.
Failed to see the light
Men were arranged in rows
Waiting out the night.
A shadowy figure flows
Between them left and right
Drawing the lot they chose
Feeling it seethe inside
Here we go again
Life among the dead.
Until the night becomes tomorrow
I get pulled from the womb
The walls all fall in on cue
Hearts are broken in two
World turned cold til I drew
Closer to you
Light bars and plastic cards
Clouds that few can see.
Straying away so far from
The way that things should be
And then a guiding star
Shines a light for free.
Still wears the wounds and scars
Borne for you and me.
Reaping the things they sow
Never what they like
Livin like a broadway show
Bathed in neon light
Saying it isn't so
They can't see wrong from right.
Searchin we'll ever grow
Faith and less by sight.
