Redemption's Gone - Imperial State Electric

Got lost in a long knife night

So crystal clear and yet out of sight

With sore feet down deep in the crowds

And heads held high soaring up in the clouds

Now heed the call

We’re going off to war

Like generations did before

The righteous race is always on

But the songs are all over

And redemption’s gone

Fulfilling every prophecy

From every little book triumphantly

And the reaper done sharpen the scythe

But we got our pride and we don’t scrutinize

For every heaven a burning hell

One disciple one infidel

Endlessly 'till kingdom come

But the songs are all over

And redemption’s gone

Now heed the call

We’re going off to war

Like generations did before

Blessed banners waving in the skies

Divine scriptures bastardized

Now heed the call

We’re going off to war

Like generations did before

The righteous race is always on

But the songs are all over

And redemption’s gone
