lyrics

Promise Land

Verse:
A grown man whispers the sound of silence
His children kneel and pray in his name
Their promise is in a cave of diamonds
Raise your gun and take your aim.

Chorus:
Live for yourself or live to please
Take what you want then drop to your knees
In sheets of gold, your head in the sand
Today we march to the promise land

Verse:
You find your way to a plastic city
The broken play the numbers game
They’ll take your soul when they beg for mercy
Shit hits the fan when you reach the flame

Bridge:
Give me my eyes
No one will come to a baby’s cries
If the tank runs dry or the ice gets thin,
People walk by again and again
Oh, big man in the sky, don’t you cry
