Stalled Armageddon - Headspace

They stayed sometime, thought they’d never go

Bound us to the land and bled us 'till we’re bone-dry

The undertaker never stalled at all

They know now — they know now

A change in their final idyllic show

People we had loved beginning to be soulless

The undertaker wouldn’t halt at all

They know now — they know now

Chains on gates into Babylon

Fear salvation leads to hell

People that stand in different corners

They know now — they know now

Heightened stations that our chieftains never saw

Based emotions added

They know now — they know now

Chains on gates into Babylon

Take your vengeance out on hell

People that stand in different corners

They know now — they know now

All the time whilst it was safe to measure

Clearly wasn’t our choice then to stay

If I’d known better, I’d have stopped to get away

Storm clouds

The unstable skies of winter

From the scorching haze in August

To the blazing silent splinter of a moment’s madness

From the borders of town, meadows enclosed

And the second it started, I lost hope

In emotion aroused from the mother of faith

But I’d rather be something that’s real

Covered leather 'n bound, and the children were saved

That’s how it started, all the blame:

With the lessons and time that were taken each day

But I don’t understand it, even now

Keep us for the moment, out of sight

Keep us from the moment

Keep us in the moment

Light of day leading us

Nothing we have broken dies away

Cheated, stalled Armageddon

Evasive — evasive

Beaten, fallen down

Get them down beneath us — beneath us

Open gates into Babylon

Elated — elated

Order might be before too long

Embracing — embracing
