Lyrics for The Apocalypse Song
Wait! I'll be swifter Than the speed of light Carbon All my body A billion years of time You'll wake With the stitches Over both your eyes And deny me my body And all earthly delights It's time You are a light I guess you are afraid of What everyone is made of Time and light I guess you are afraid of What everyone is made of All of your praying Amounts to just one breath Please keep your victory But give me little death It's time You are a light I guess you are afraid of What everyone is made of Time and light I guess you are afraid of What everyone is made of (Time) (Time) (Time) (Time) (Time, time, time) (Time, time, time) (Time, time, time) Time, you are a light I guess you are afraid of What everyone is made of Time and light I guess you are afraid of What everyone is made of Everyone is made of So take to the streets with Apocalypse refrain Your devotion has the look of A lunatic's gaze
