Lyrics for Violent Times
(Huh) Violent times Almost lost you in these violent times I forgot people could be so kind In these violent times Dollar signs Almost lost it chasing dollar signs Know the cost but I forgot the price Of buying my life I must have been dreaming I fell down the well Waking up Waking up in hell Different eyes You're the same, but I got different eyes How could I ever have been so blind? Blame these violent times When all of the bombs inside All of the wires I hide All of the wasted nights chasing mortality But in the ashes of Pompeii Lovers discovered in an embrace For all eternity I must have been dreaming I fell down the well But I swear you were hearing me Through the noise and static and the call
