imaginary lines

don’t take too long to find what you need
this is all, this is all coming down
don’t take too long and don’t look back
you can believe it, you can see it all around
and when the houses are burning
and the ashes sting your eyes
the tiniest reminder, the civilized lie
boots on the ground, the old men say
this is ours, this is our holy war
over the horizon, imaginary lines
this has all, this has all been done before
and when the houses are burning
and the ashes sting your eyes
the tiniest reminder, the civilized lie
and when the bodies are burning
i hope the ashes sting your eyes
the tiniest reminder, the civilized lie

judgment at hand

it’s horrifying, what they’ve done to you
there’s no line they won’t cross
no something they won’t prove
they’re holding bibles like they’re looking to sell
there’s no bending, breaking
no mercy when you hold the keys to hell
for your own good they threw you in a cage
they celebrate their freedom
sneer and ask what made you that way
almost hope they’re right, and there’s judgment at hand
vengeance, spite, or mercy
i’d hate to be where they stand

hang in there, baby

hang in there, baby
they have nothing on you
they put on a big show
but no one believes it’s true
waiting on a missile
waiting for the rain
it’s never as bad as they say
but it’s never the same
trees move like nightmares
cars sound like death
walking past the cemetery
i won’t hold my breath
hang in there, baby
and i’ll hang in too
they’ll always try to take it all away
but they have nothing on you
hang in there, baby
hang in there, baby
hang in there, baby
hang in there, baby

if

if there’s hope in the night
in the ambulance lights
if there’s a dream you’re holding
that never ends right
if there’s a love that’s waiting
if you’d end the fight
if there’s a chance to make things
a little better this time
