Before The Storm

How many days
Before we're punished for our destructive ways
When you speak, I don't hear
When I look, you disappear
But we kill amongst our own kind
How many years,
Has greed been trying to fill the void we so fear?
What you break, I don't mend
You accuse and I defend
But we love to hate our own kind

So brace yourselves
This is only the calm before the storm
We'll be running to the end of the earth
Escaping the hurt
And I'll see you at the end of the road
So take my hand and
Tell me why

Must we disengage the people we need in our lives
We'll be burning till the end of our days
Regretting our ways
And I'll see you at the end of your last chance
To redeem your faith...

Insert another coin here
Blow up another man's country in the name of fear
Kill off another dying race
What we don't have can never be taken away,so
Burn everything that we need
Take away the last bit of hope we have left to feel
Dethrone the kings and queens
What I don't even see doesn't matter much to me

So brace yourselves
This is only the calm before the storm
We'll be running to the end of the earth
Escaping the hurt
And I'll see you at the end of the road
So take my hand and
Tell me why

Must we disengage the people we need in our lives
We'll be burning till the end of our days
Regretting our ways
And I'll see you at the end of your last chance
To redeem your faith
