Nothing Pure Can Stay

Let's stand aside as all explodes
No reason to join the fight
And I'll stare in your eyes
As hell passes by and never know
I think it's gonna change

(Look up at what's around you
Would you give up?
Do you think we...)

There's not a prayer that you can say
To save you this time, this time
Little horned demons stalking siamese cats
Through a parking lot under a rainbow painted black
And there's dust in my water and my shoes are worn
I told you once before, nothing pure can stay

Solemn at the wake, hand in hand with the devil, singing "Hallelujah"
On my knees at the gate as the penitant man
Screaming, "Lord, please take me back!"
"Please take me back!"
"Take me back!"
