Philmont - The Ascension |
|
Of course I would rather not try to explain |
|
Where all this is going |
|
I never thought we'd take it so lightly |
|
The high and the mighty |
|
Will all fall the same |
|
Of course I would stick to my story |
|
An obvious warning to heed to the signs |
|
Then everything, it crumbles around me |
|
The last call is sounding |
|
I'm boarding the train |
|
And time, it won't stand still |
|
Dreams will slowly hide |
|
Beneath the dust that settles on your life |
|
Your life |
|
The truth is we'd rather not listen |
|
Aborting the mission, abandoning hope |
|
It's sabotage, we scramble the signals |
|
Give up our positions |
|
Surrender to fear |
|
Running blind, escaping the future |
|
The winners and losers are called out tonight |
|
You can't run, can't hide in the back seat |
|
The sky is collapsing |
|
The future is here |
|
And time, it won't stand still |
|
Dreams will slowly hide |
|
Beneath the dust that settles on your life |
|
Sit with me, we'll watch the stars collide |
|
The flaming embers wrapped in smoke |
|
Will shower you and I |
|
And as we burn, our bodies leave their posts |
|
We'll ascend the charred remains |
|
And depart from all we know |
|
You and I will survive |
