Last Verse First
So I tried to wake up
Can't forget your name
I saw a picture of you lying there
On the way we stumbled
In the summer rain
It left a hollow look inside your stare
They said it's worth us saving
But they never had to bleed
For a dream that only makes you wait
With all the best ones leaving
We held to our belief
That rescue comes to those of us who stay
Oh where is your god now
When the devil's at the door
Ain't no saviors to be found
They don't come here anymore
The book of Lamentations
Was written in our home
Can't get safe from kept happening
So all those years in shadows
Inside our minds alone
We lost salvation in unspoken things
Now our paper tigers
Stain our history
With echoes of a life that got away
The treasure we thought we found
Is getting hard to see
Gods and kings were never meant to stay
Oh where is your god now
When the devil's at the door
Ain't no saviors to be found
They don't come here anymore
Can I get a symphony
For loosing our philosophy
And every time the prophets see
We move on
Way up in the cheaper seats
They're sticky with their apathy
But they're not gonna miss a beat
So play on
Oh hallelujah
It's all gone away
Trying to loose ya
Is like holding a weight
Can't forget your name
I saw a picture of you lying there
On the way we stumbled
In the summer rain
It left a hollow look inside your stare
They said it's worth us saving
But they never had to bleed
For a dream that only makes you wait
With all the best ones leaving
We held to our belief
That rescue comes to those of us who stay
Oh where is your god now
When the devil's at the door
Ain't no saviors to be found
They don't come here anymore
The book of Lamentations
Was written in our home
Can't get safe from kept happening
So all those years in shadows
Inside our minds alone
We lost salvation in unspoken things
Now our paper tigers
Stain our history
With echoes of a life that got away
The treasure we thought we found
Is getting hard to see
Gods and kings were never meant to stay
Oh where is your god now
When the devil's at the door
Ain't no saviors to be found
They don't come here anymore
Can I get a symphony
For loosing our philosophy
And every time the prophets see
We move on
Way up in the cheaper seats
They're sticky with their apathy
But they're not gonna miss a beat
So play on
Oh hallelujah
It's all gone away
Trying to loose ya
Is like holding a weight
