When the Smoke Clears

Looking out the back door, I got all I’m waiting for
Couldn’t get a second more, lost the count of what’s in store
Loose change in cushions ran away when I was pushing that’s just life
You’ve got sympathy for silence
You’ve got patience for the tyrants
You got further than where I did
Further than where I did
That’s just life
Saw some logic in the breeze and found that’s all that I need
Saw some violence in the peace and found that’s all that I need
Saw some balance in the callous ridden fountains of our youth
And found that’s all that I need
Digging six feet down lay to rest your fears, when the smoke clears
Digging six feet down lay to rest your fears, when the smoke clears
When the smoke clears
When the smoke clears
Batting 0 for 2 it’s the final inning never thought there was
Such a view for the dreamers and the vagabonds
He said he’d bleed for what he needed
But we never saw a drop of blood
You’ve got sympathy for silence
You’ve got patience for the tyrants
You got further than the lightning
Further than the lightning
Digging six feet down lay to rest your fears, when the smoke clears
Digging six feet down lay to rest your fears, when the smoke clears
When the smoke clears
When the smoke clears
When the smoke clears
When the smoke clears
There is a fire in our eyes
There’s a tyrant in our veins
Couldn’t stand their thin disguise
Took our masks off when we sing
'There's a fire in our eyes
There’s a tyrant in our veins
Couldn’t stand their thin disguise
Took our masks off when we sing
'There's a fire in our eyes
There’s a tyrant in our veins
Couldn’t stand their thin disguise
Took our masks off when we sing
There’s a fire in our eyes
There’s a tyrant in our veins
Couldn’t stand their thin disguise
Took our masks off when we sing
Took our mask off when we sing
Couldn’t stand their thing disguise
Took our masks off when we
Batting 0 for 2 it’s the final inning, never thought
Batting 0 for 2 it’s the final inning, never thought
Batting 0 for 2 it’s the final inning, never thought
Never thought, never thought
Took our masks off when we sang
Couldn’t stand their thing disguise
Took our masks off when we sing
