And so now, now that you realize
That planets are spheres with oil on the inside
And your god is only a catapult
Waiting for the right time to let you go
Into the unknown just to watch you hold your breath
Yeah and surrender your fortress
And your thoughts will tumble like rocks do
Over the valleys of factory oceans
The Turkish carpets are flapping
As the wind drops you down to the surface
Yeah when you're looking for your sweet heart
And you're, you're the kind to hide your eyes from the sun
And in your world the strong survive
But I won't lay my body down
Intro riff x4
Let me tell you, your arms are like boulders
And your shoulders are cliffs, but your head keeps rolling off
And your spine it is weak from the weight on your shoulders
And from difference of opinion
There is a song you hear on the radio
It's a funeral march so you change the channel
But it's all you hear as you're driving up the 101
From Mexico to California
Yeah there's no snow when you're looking for your sweet heart
There's no snow when you're looking for your answers
Yeah you're, you're the kind to hide your eyes from the sun
And in your world the strong survive
But I won't lay my body down
Intro riff x8
Yeah by the time they get your letter of explanation
You'll be dead and gone
Barking up a new tree and eyeing up some new friends
And scaring off the families while tidying up your loose ends
Chasing squirrels around your property
Making sure that they know that this is your kingdom
And nothing will stop it, yeah nothing will stop it
If nothing can stop it, yeah nothing will stop it
And you're, you're the kind to hide your eyes from the sun
And in your world the strong survive
But won't you lay your body down
Yes and now, now's the time to wrap your ears
Around the sounds of your train coming round
But you don't have to lay everything down
Intro riff x1
