Jesus Christ shining red on the roof
Greasy hair, converse and cab on the sidewalk
Honeybee, rivers and blood won’t bring it back
Rocks stand still, immutable so should you
Remember, I put a riot in your heart
And later, you put a shield in mine
Mountains dance and trees sway through the storm
Safe heaven you won’t find but within you
Jesus Christ shining red on the roof
The rain, the raindrops won’t even stop
Remember, I put a riot in your heart
And later, you put a shield in mine
Remember,you were the glorious Panzon
And later, it was Joy Division

Relentlessly, we run faster, we dig deeper and hallow out
The train passes; we travel safe
There’s lesser sleep, no lullabies
Our western fate, their judging eyes
The sunrise gap, look at it
Day after day, it vanishes, choked by idleness
I don’t want a blinker hood
Deeper, younger, quicker
Deeper goes in the lie we live
Deeper, younger, quicker
Relentlessly, we play it safe
Wolves take control
With composure and wine power
Safely numb
Unknowingly, I go to sleep
Smothered and unaware
Now I see with blood shot eyes
We look but don’t realize
Deeper goes in the lie we live
Deeper, younger, quicker

Piper, loser, we couldn’t see your point of view
Distant, dreamer, mistakes are going right on through
Pretender, forgetful, couldn’t make the final call
Constant, drifter, you turned into to a waterfall
And you crawled your days away
Convinced your heart to stray
Words make no rules when it’s just me and you
Piper, porous, the ground you stand on is making you stall
Leaver, winner, walk on by and smile through it all
And you crawled your days away
Convinced your heart to stray
Words make no rules when it’s just me and you

Sit right back, don’t say a word
It’s me you’re gonna see, knock you down to your knees
You’ll shine like a star for a while
Just before that scenes comes along and let me in
Opens up and let us in
Deep within the wall you hid
A misfit with a dream
Never looks like just the way it seems
The seminary never had a chance
Just another bridge built upon a dream with empty sins
You could never believe in
As you turn around and your father’s gone
Should have known this time wouldn’t be the last
To see where I stand in your organized mess
Did I pass the test?
Sit right back, don’t say a word
It’s me you’re gonna see, knock you down to your knees
You’ll shine like a star for a while
Just before that scenes comes along and let me in
Opens up and let us in
As you turn around and your father’s gone
Should have known this time wouldn’t be the last
To see where I stand in your organized mess
Did I pass the test?
