No World for Tomorrow

Wait, there's never been a mess like this
No more hands to hold
When the page turns tomorrow, with the hurt to give up
Curses as god has (sold us)
Believe me, hell has no room for your crime
So beat me till the blood and the bone finds our end near

Bye, bye world, or will our hope still hold on?
And boy, you're never gonna see
The things that'll come of these

Raise your hands high, young brothers and sisters
There's a world's worth of work and a need for you
Oh, change is coming, feel these doors now closing in
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?

So march to the drumming
Show them you're coming
You've been their play
Cut to the carving
Bleed them 'til running
Enough, they'll take no more

You've been living off their power, boy
Now go and make your move
Curse us, these gods aren't faking
Have mercy on the cowards, boys
They'll pray to have you lose
Help us, this world's now breaking

So now they've noticed all you've given in sound
Let us in, let us in
Give me love over life the sweet soft of ground
Let us in, let us in now

Bye, bye world, or will our hope still hold on?
And boy, you're never gonna see
The things that'll come of these

Raise your hands high, young brothers and sisters
There's a world's worth of work and a need for you
Oh, change is coming, feel these doors now closing in
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?

So march to the drumming
Show them you're coming
You've been their play
Cut to the carving
Bleed them 'til running
Enough, they'll take no more

In the light we'll sing, as all hurt must bring
In the falling cusp of all broken things
In the coming dusk, you will call on us
And unite we must, I'm the Crowing, thus

You all think you've figured me out, do as I say
Your words mean nothing at all, so now, I lay
I said, "Come, momma, come, momma, as I need"
I said, "Come, momma, come, momma, watch it bleed"

Oh, what did I do to deserve all of this?
What did I do to deserve all of you?

Raise your hands high, young brothers and sisters
There's a world's worth of work and a need for you
Oh, change is coming, feel these doors now closing in
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?
Bye, bye world, or will our hope still hold on?
