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
