Next War

High Time
God loved a liar
sure as waters rise
sure as fire climbs
Exiled
to walk the finest line
to crawl the great divide
between faith and denial
How’s it feel when the jokes on you
and your prayers only hopes to be camouflaged?
Now your saviours are soaked to their skin
cos they sink when they walk on water
Talk of Hell when you’re earthbound now
I’ll keep looking at the permanent stars
Come and meet me in the next war
Well it’s no excuse to be young
And sure as waters rise
Pure as fire climbs
God loves a liar
Understand
you walk in no man’s land
to be forgiving me something
when it’s not in your hands
How’s it feel when the jokes on you
and your prayers only hopes to be camouflaged?
Now your saviours are soaked to their skin
cos they sink when they walk on water
Talk of Hell when you’re earthbound now
I’ll keep looking at the permanent stars
Come and meet me in the next war
Well it’s no excuse to be young
And if you keep missing the trick
You’re not paying attention
Throwing stones in the alleyways
Distracted to destruction
In the last three days of arrogance and vanity
The habits we formed I once thought of as duty
And hardship’s a high price to pay for beauty — I’ve not seen the light
I’ve not seen the light — I just stepped out of the dark this time
Always knew there were rules to salvation
What can you look to now?
Never thought there was truth to salvation
What can you look through now?
How’s it feel when the jokes on you
and your prayers only hopes to be camouflaged?
Now your saviours are soaked to their skin
cos they sink when they walk on water
Talk of Hell when you’re earthbound now
I’ll keep looking at the permanent stars
Come and meet me in the next war
Well it’s no excuse to be young
Always knew there were rules to salvation
What can you look to now?
Never thought there was truth to salvation
What can you look through?
