lyrics

This is the final time
This is the final rhyme
Regarding what you mean to me and
Calculating what should be
This is the final time
This is the final time

I know I only speak to you in times of doubt and trouble
And for all the time that’s in between I try to keep it subtle
I’m sorry my subservience so synchronously waivers
But when I fall I call on you my parachute and savior

You are the reason why
I won’t spread my wings too wide
And I pilfered all my purity for pride

I guess I never thought I’d ever have to make decisions
So final and so ferrous and devoid of any vision
Deregulating reasoning
Regaling in revision
I invoke the just in case clause to avoid a cold collision

Your God can be love again
Love again and nothing more
Sum total of knowledge
Of all who were before
Accelerated natural selection
Take away our boundaries and we’ll choose a new direction

So I guess it’s time I bring you up to speed
Here is a heart that never has a chance to bleed
And though it tears me up I must concede
Still I am wan to let you plant your seed

Because I barely ever brave the weather by the book
I think it’s time I turn a page and take another look
My optimism ails me
My escape is well in sight
My religion really looks more like the switch than like the light

You took them all away from me so early
I place the blame between my bouts of faith
A symphony so sour and so surly
I wish I knew the way to lift the weight

Your God can be love again

It's hard to choose a favorite track here! Klaus really killed it in every way - AND WOW! His cover of Bjork's "Army Of Me" was bold and flawless - it's not easy to cover Bjork! I really love this cover album. One of the best ones of the series! embracethevoid_
