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
