lyrics

Time is an arrow
That’s what I believe
But some things keep repeating
Psychopathic killers
Bred to deceive

Same suit different face
Our lives to defend
Flowers in the morning breeze
But even plastic roses
Will prick you in the end

Stay fast my friends
Hang tight
If we can stick together
We’ll be alright
We’ll be alright

Crouching in the bunker
Hidden out of sight
Soldiers prowl the avenues
Sycophantic lovers
Creeping through the night

Stay fast my friends
Hang tight
If we can stick together
We will be alright
We’ll be alright

Time, time we wax sublime
One more exhibit on the picket line
But we enter the gateway conscious turn-style
See what it is raw bloody and wild
Pure and naked satiated
The world dictated what was created
Society of savage nonchalance
Dim denial their immune response
Don't look at me with those sugar coated eyes
See your talons through your thin disguise
You are just like me a billion years to evolve
I'm just like you when I've got no soul
Time is come the die is cast
Its coming at you deadly deadly fast
I see you face down on the ground tonight
Flashing red and blue in the flickering light
Give a cop a gun there's a price to pay
Another brother lost in the world today
And it's all it's just a matter of time

Stay fast my friends
Hang tight
If we can stick together
We’ll be alright
We’ll be alright

Time is an arrow
Taken through the heart
So hold it close in your quiver
Find out what is real
Or perish in the dark

Stay fast my friends
Hang tight
If we can stick together
We will be alright
Stay fast my friends
Hang tight
If we can stick together
We'll be alright
We’ll be alright
We’ll be alright
We’ll be alright
We’ll be alright
You know we'll be alright
