We got abandoned in this land with it's haunting carols and All it's henchman hanging around the bright red Barrels

There are rare days when we feel okay but

You know they don't last long

Barely remembered loved ones

Still trying to hold their hands

Can you picture that message we tramped into the sand?

These are the last few moments

There's a timer running down

You know it won't last long

(Can you hear us coming out of your song boxes? We'll try to make it quick so it won't be too obnoxious)

We are wretched, dead all ready, this early in a song

Can't stop this overwhelming mood pulling us along

I scrambled for the reeds as I rushed down the banks

I pretty much gave in I pretty much sank

There was no redemption Zero restoration

A dead world

Nothing will grow again

I see no good and I could see no love

These are the things that I'm so afraid of

We keep scrubbing but it's never enough

This cloth just gets filthy and the dirt never comes off

There are rare days when we don't feel this grey

Let's pray it doesn't last long

PAUL, your eyes look tired, I would recommend bed

If you'd ever check your inbox but my message is unread

Yeah, it's a rare day when I do my admin and I know it won't last long

We're so far in this now but stop this is wrong

Yeah, you can change your mind half way through a song

One last chance

Let's turn this around

In this tragic land make a positive sound

Make redemption

A little restoration

This dead world might grow again and

It'll be about good

It'll be about love

All the things we are so afraid of

For God's sake drag us out with you By the shoulders through the buffer zone

We might be frozen and scared but

Now at least we are not alone

I've managed to find some bolt-cutters and I know you've got snippers for the wire

We've got each other now

For definite and

We've got our fire

So here is BEN on his bass with a smile on his face

Cause of OLI's supple drumming telling you to come in and

Get warm by the fire with MAT's sweet guitar

This off-key singing let's you know that you are winning

Here is redemption and restoration

A dead world but we are growing again and

Here is good and here is love and

We are not afraid anymore and

We are not afraid anymore and

We are not afraid anymore
