Kingdom

Thank your lucky stars you're not where they are
Batten down the hatches on another day
So good so far

I saw a city, I saw a people identify as a collective unit
Who won't give up and I know we're all individuals
But somehow we also know
That we're all one

We are so small, we are peaceful
But we'll soon get of our arses when our faith is overrun
Gonna change the remote for the gun

When the kingdom comes
When the kingdom comes
When the kingdom comes
When the kingdom comes

I am not fair of face
I am not full of grace
But I'll be terrible and beautiful just like a rising sun
Up here with my brothers and my sons

When the kingdom comes
When the kingdom comes
When the kingdom comes
When the kingdom comes

So all the people living under the bridge sleeping

And the middle class people and probably the rich people
Their all in it together and the river rises towards them
Away and recedes and they will not leave

You can kid yourself that nothing else exists
Except the self-reflecting cube you're in
Talk about the relativity of sin debate
How many angels on a pin
Edify your mind and keep the truth at bay
Internalize the fiction til' it stays
Make believe the enemy is far away

Hope is the spirit, refusing and believing without proof
Hope is the greatest thing that we have
Hope is the greatest thing that we have
Hope is the greatest thing that we have

Sarah-Jane and Mary-Anne
Will you now defend this land
Will you fall or will you fry
On the earth and in the sky

We'll need steed and automation that's how the west was won
You won't know the ketchup from the blood
When the kingdom comes

When the kingdom comes
When the kingdom comes
When the kingdom comes
When the kingdom comes

I look at the stars a lot and I think why would we see the stars
If they didn't have anything to do with us,
Because everything we see has something to do with us
That star I'm looking at, it's not there anymore,
Now what is the meaning of all of this, and so I thought
And their looking at me, and that made me think that in fact
My mother is really out there, traveling in the light

Where are the keys to the Kingdom
Standing at the door and I want to come in
Where are the keys to the Kingdom
Standing at the door and I want to come in
Standing at the door and I want to come in
Standing at the door and I want to come in

The spirit of the people
The spirit of the people
The spirit of the people
