Before They Crash the Universe
They came to my town
They came with attitudes on fire
They put their arms down
This was the gun for hire
Lost in this moment
Lost in this unfamiliar place
I counted no men
I couldn't find a face
This is the time, this is the day
We switch off the dead night
This is the time, this is the day
We switch on the white light
Before they crash the universe
Hung-up and dried out
Left in this elemental state
Shook up and cried out
This is an awful fate
And in that moment
There in that hard, torrential rain
We cried for no man
Inspired to live again
This is the time, this is the day
We switch off the dead night
This is the time, this is the day
We switch on the white light
Before they crash the universe
They came to this town
They came to tax our dreams away
And on the way down
We pushed their jab away
We held this moment
Suspended in this perfect state
We cried for no man
We carved in stone the date
This is the time, this is the day
We switch off the dead night
This is the time, this is the day
We switch on the white light
Before they crash the universe, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
They came with attitudes on fire
They put their arms down
This was the gun for hire
Lost in this moment
Lost in this unfamiliar place
I counted no men
I couldn't find a face
This is the time, this is the day
We switch off the dead night
This is the time, this is the day
We switch on the white light
Before they crash the universe
Hung-up and dried out
Left in this elemental state
Shook up and cried out
This is an awful fate
And in that moment
There in that hard, torrential rain
We cried for no man
Inspired to live again
This is the time, this is the day
We switch off the dead night
This is the time, this is the day
We switch on the white light
Before they crash the universe
They came to this town
They came to tax our dreams away
And on the way down
We pushed their jab away
We held this moment
Suspended in this perfect state
We cried for no man
We carved in stone the date
This is the time, this is the day
We switch off the dead night
This is the time, this is the day
We switch on the white light
Before they crash the universe, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
