A long and lonesome time ago
I was talking to some old ghosts
They lay me down softly
With a lullabye so deep and sweet
It crept deep in midnight dreams
So beautiful with moonlight soft upon your face
(Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooh)
(Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooh)
Take me higher
I’ve seen so many suns come and go
Since I’ve been away from home
As I walk among the castles
I tear them down to sand
There’s one thing to be a rebel
Another to be a man
If I were to die today
How long would my body stay
Before turning in my grave
And who will take my mortal soul
If Jesus Christ says heavens full
Or my heart is heavy as a stone
I’ve seen so many suns come and go
Since I’ve been away from home
As I walk among the castles
I tear them down to sand
There’s one thing to be a rebel
Another to be a man
I’ve got an encore performance at the show
And a whole lot of weight on my shoulders
You know I got some soul
But I ain’t no fucking soldier
I’m a son of a gun loaded to the brim
Lightning bolts is my original sin
I’m spitting fire in the hearts of men
I’m gonna oh, oh, oh
Young boy trying to get wise
Trying to see the world through open eyes
But you’ve been searching for the wrong signs
You have yet to see the light
Light of the sun, oh
Requiem for the night
Too many stars in the sky
Soon an angel will rise
Oh, no
Some worlds want to be saved
Some don't
This one is a special case
Gods among us never fit in
This place simply can't sustain the infinite
A prophet's verse is given to transcend
Time was once a force to be reckoned with
But even he could not hold back a heart's content
Of the sun, of the stars
Of the body, of the heart
