Let's go back to the beginning
Before we lost everything worth winning
We took more comfort in the stars before we knew what they were
Everybody get together, apocalypse now and forever
Golden cities melt, golden pastures burn

I don't want to live forever, I just want to live
Two-headed calves and blood-filled rivers
I've had enough of it
Sheep all sing, "Saints preserve us"
Saints sing back, "You don't deserve us"
I hope it's true what they say, all's well that ends

From the eye of the needle to the bells of the cathedral
We'll all be swinging when the trap door slams
So gather your possessions and burn all your confessions
There will be no one to judge you in the broken promise land

I don't want to live forever, I just want to live
Rain of frogs, rain of fire
Who believes this shit?
Sheep all sing, "Saints preserve us"
Saints sing back, "You don't deserve us"
I hope it's true what they say, all's well that ends

Some days I want to blow my trumpet and tear this city down
Or write my name across the sky in the smoke of a mushroom cloud
False prophets fill their pockets
I want to tear their tongues right out

I don't want to live forever, I just want to live
Two-headed calves and blood-filled rivers
I've had enough of it
Sheep all sing, "Saints preserve us"
Saints sing back, "You don't deserve us"
I hope it's true what they say

I don't want to live forever, I just want to live
Rain of frogs, rain of fire
Who believes this shit?
Sheep all sing, "Saints preserve us"
Saints sing back, "You don't deserve us"
I hope it's true what they say
