When I was young and innocent
The world was such a beautiful place
The whisper of the calming breeze
It caressed my sweet, soft face
The trees of green were my companions
The birds sang the prettiest poem
The Sun and the rain were blessings
And Creation was my cherished home

I'm waking up in an interstate standstill
Staring out over a steering wheel
At a scene I remember from childhood
Suffocating on a smog surreal
Every last participant I can see including me
We ain't going over 5 miles an hour
But the insane rates they make license plates
Really got me questioning my democratic horsepower

Can I get a hallelujah
Can I get an amen
As salamu 'alaykum
It's the Gospel of oil
Children - Nigh is the end

As the skies burn black with extinction's stench 
And The Stars disappear beyond the cities at night
As the rulers plan to dig another pipeline trench
And the fingers point The Muslim and The Israelite
Babylon's breeding drivers like the blood on a weapon
And Eden's nearly gone to Gehenna and grave
Another angel screams war in The Kingdom of Heaven
But it's all just news to a petroleum slave

Now these words a hypocrite may make me
'Cause I'm a lover of convenient means
But my conscience sure cries with my excuses and lies 
Every time I choose a war machines
I know Mother Mary Earth rues ever giving birth
The birds cry that she's about to pass
But I never do hear not an Earthling's tear
While paying for another gallon of gas

Can I get a hallelujah
Can I get an amen
As salamu 'alaykum
It's the Gospel of oil
Children - Nigh is the end

As the skies burn black with extinction's stench 
And The Stars disappear beyond the cities at night
As the rulers plan to dig another pipeline trench
And the fingers point The Muslim and The Israelite
Babylon's breeding drivers like the blood on a weapon
And Eden's nearly gone to Gehenna and grave
Another angel screams war in The Kingdom of Heaven
But it's all just news to a petroleum slave

Do you pay no mind to the air that you breathe
To keep your eyes on the road or do you just pretend
That you pay no mind to the air that you breathe
So the daily commute is just a means to an end

There's a war going on in The East
There's a war that was won in Rome
There's a war against a ravenous Beast
And that war is going on at home
Priorities seem so important at the time
When life's protected by invisible hands
The prices are best when sitting high in The West
Yeah, even Rome was an invincible land

As the skies burn black with extinction's stench 
And The Stars disappear beyond the cities at night
As the rulers plan to dig another pipeline trench
And the fingers point The Muslim and The Israelite
Babylon's breeding drivers like the blood on a weapon
And Eden's nearly gone to Gehenna and grave
Another angel screams war in The Kingdom of Heaven
But it's all just news to a petroleum slave
Yes, the skies burn black with extinction's stench 
And The Stars disappear beyond the cities at night
The rulers plan to dig another pipeline trench
And the fingers point The Muslim and The Israelite
Babylon's breeding drivers like the blood on a weapon
And Eden's nearly gone to Gehenna and grave
Another angel screams war in The Kingdom of Heaven
And it's a long road home for a petroleum slave

Can I get a hallelujah
Can I get an amen
As salamu 'alaykum
It's the Gospel of oil
Children - Nigh is the end
