lyrics

Endings always pitiful for both sides,

When you try to hang on too long,

Try to take the free ride home,

Try and breathe through freeze-dried lungs.

Leaving’s never easy on the insides.

Liftoff prayers slung, everybody’s got one,

To keep ‘em hanging on strong,

with tongues like kettle drums.

It’s not long now my parade’s gonna come for me! you’ll see!

Believing don’t come freely, they got you tongue-tied,

Listening to the same old songs,

But they got the words all wrong

Bragging bout their kingdom come.

And you can hear the feet a-beating out a drum time,

Sound like Fear come to catch you with your pants down,

and get you crawling around town,

Your sledgehammer heartbeat pound.

Not long! Not long!

Will breezing bring the meteors over blue skies?

Trees to breathe a fiery rain?

Purger of a truth profane,

Murder of the sick and sane?

Or will we run off all the animals before the sun dies?

Black cloud come down and folks’ll pull their hair out.

And watch the sky fall down,

Living with the curtains drawn.

Not long!
