The Beginning

Since the dawn of men, the lions in the den keep us afraid Yeah, a fire or a flood will fall from above so count your days When all the towns will turn to dust And all the gold is left to rust, or so they say With a pen full of rage, John in a cage, he saw what he saw Yeah, the mark of the beast will part the sea to find us all And it's truth if you believe You ask, you shall receive And I read the holy books and I poured through the pages Upon a closer look, I had a revelation Yeah, I noticed there's a trend The world keeps spinning We've been talking 'bout the end ever since the beginning Yeah, a soul will search and build 'em a church to share the fear 'Cause on the edge of a road, a billboard swears "The End Is Near" And the rich go build a bunker I've seen the signs and wondered And I read the holy books and I poured through the pages Upon a closer look, I had a revelation Yeah, I noticed there's a trend The world keeps spinning We've been talking 'bout the end ever since the beginning Yet the sun comes up again Yet the sun comes up again Someday we'll all look up and pray for love to change us Find the courage to be kind and then Hell, maybe we ain't finished Yeah, maybe This is just the beginning The beginning The beginning, yeah
