One comes of it, love it, love it
Let go of it, love comes from it
We're not of this world for long.
Faith and promise keep me honest
When starvation, falls upon us
Daylight told me he would be.
Gone with cold words, spoke among hers
Wretched is the tongue of their world
We're not of that world at all
We will never be.
Wouldn't it be fine to stand
behind the words we say in the best of times?
Oh and you and I know all too well
about the hell and paradise right here on Earth.
Keep it use it
Build it move it
Flames can't touch how time will prove it
Watch us fly as loud as we can
Let her heart beat
Change what I am now.
Wouldn't it be fine to stand
behind the words we say in the best of times?
Oh and you and I know all too well
about the hell and paradise right here on Earth.
