Flicker and Fail

11.Flicker And Fail
.
He took a bus to meet me
in a bar in a Tuscan hill
Oh a sight I'd never seen,
I believe in God still
But you wouldn't be able to stop me
if I feel like running away
Wouldn't be able to stop me
if I didn't want to stay
.

And the rain fell on the houses
And on the late swaying trees
It fell its fiercest on the skulls
of the willingly deceived
They put money in their hearts

and God where their mouth is
They put money in their hearts and God
.
Said he'd been sleeping lonely,
spending nights under the stars
Little darling, we're all lonely,
we don't all show our scars
It's my heart, and my burden,
and I would never bring you down like that
My heart, my burden,
I would never bring you down with me
.
And the rain fell on the towers
and on the late swaying trees
And it hammered and it raged on us unwillingly
And the believers were forewarned,
and they ran into the storm
And watched the earth's light flicker and fail
Watched the earth's light flicker and fail
Flicker and, flicker and fail
.
They put money in their hearts
and God where their mouth is
They put money in their hearts
and God where their mouth is
They put money in their hearts
and God where their mouth is
They put money in their hearts and God
