I watched you standing there, in the ashes of the post apocalyptic city
With the wind and the flowers in your hair
I watched you standing there with the wisdom of the ages
And the olive branch and dove composed in prayer
Oh what a wonderful name
Every voice will sound
Oh how before it came
By law we were all bound
Now we (A)bound in truth
For YOU. We're all dead
We're all dead until we're born again
We're all dead, we're all dead until we witness Him
Uh huh!
You took my best friend
Took him down with you and you had your way, oh! your way!
What a terrible thing!
And you say "Beauty, well, I wish you knew me
Did you forget my name?
Did your number change?
Did you just get caught up in all of that fortune and fame?"
You say you want your freedom?
Well you're "free" in bondage!
So speak now slave!
What wisdom have you obtained?
You stole from the innocent and the brave
Oh (wholly/holy) powerful name
Every knee will bow!
Oh how before it came no Love in me was found
Now I (A)bound in truth
For YOU
We're all dead, we're all dead, until we're born again
We're all dead, we're all dead, until we witness Him
Uh huh!
Kids, heaven's just like "Cody Alabama"
If you want to enter into its blissfulness forever
You must
01. Knock at the door
02 (The door) opens with a key
03 If you look you'll find the key (all who look will find)
04 But if you never looked you never wanted what's behind the door
You see
Everyone gets what they wanted
You got nothing just like you wanted
Every body gets what they wanted
I got something just like I wanted to
Don't say never, ever. Don't say never, lover
There's no hell when you die
Just LOVE for all time, or the final flatline
You decide! You decide, the choice is your's not mine
But we're alive, it's no lie, cross my heart and hope to... (live)... Indefinitely
I watched you standing there in the ashes of the post apocalyptic city
With the sword of the spirit so: Beware
I watched you standing there, with the wisdom of the ages
Kill the prince of the power of the air
