Tripping the world imperial
(Look inside her)
Leaving the world material
(Can't hide her)
Tripping the world imperial
(Look inside her)
Leaving the world material
(Can't hide her)

Look at the riverbanks
She's looking behind you
The black clouds, they fall hard and heavy
As Eden astounds you

So hail to those who give their lives
Who don't stand back when evil rises
It's not a matter of king or country
So you think it is over
Do you think it is really over?

Look up that skyline
There's a bad moon rising
You may not like it
But that's the lizard you're riding

The smiles and suits on TV news, they feed us all
But she's the greatest of liars
The stupid bird who dares to speak the naked truth
Soon lies flat on the wire

So hail to those who give their lives
Who don't stand back when evil rises
It's not a matter of king or country
So you think it is over
Do you think it is really over?

Look up that skyline
There's a bad moon rising
You may not like it
But that's the lizard you're riding
The lizard you're riding

We're all just the same old sinner
Fighting for a piece of nothing
Same mistakes go round again (same stupid men)
Covering up his bloody trail
Cain he came back emptyhanded
With no father blessing and no holy grail

Look around you, take it in before your day is done
When I found you I was cold and all my loving gone
Life inside you like a spiral sending lifelines from the ground
When I found her, she was cold, still in her wedding gown
Look inside her...and now she's gone so bring the darkness down
She brought the darkness down
Down down down

Tripping the world imperial
Leaving the world material

Trees surround you, they say your body is the garden of your soul
Lights will blind you and all these roads they say they lead to Rome
Eyes have found her but you say you're better off alone
Plead forgiveness for a soul that's bad beyond the bone

There's truth in numbers, there's truth in scales
There's truth in science and truth in sales
And when the sweetness comes to an end
You try to bargain to live again

There's truth in progress, there's truth in fame
There's truth in healing and the truth remains
And when the sweetness comes to an end
You try to bargain to live again

You look around for the brightest minds
Or just a few simple words of kindness
A world gone shallow, cold, and mean
It's like a wasteland void of dreams
Hoping and praying that we'll find our way back home

There's truth in progress, there's truth in fame
There's truth in healing and the truth remains
And when the sweetness comes to an end
You try to bargain to live again

You look around for the brightest minds
Or just a few simple words of kindness
Hoping and praying that we'll find our way back home
That we'll find our way back home
We'll find our way back home

And then the numbers may not come up right
And the artifacts are more than frightening
Between the Bible and eternal question
There's an ocean of fear and we're sinking faster

And then the numbers may not come up right
And the artifacts are more than frightening
Between the Bible and eternal question
There's an ocean of fear and we're sinking faster

And then the numbers may not come up right
And the artifacts are more than frightening
Between the Bible and eternal question
There's an ocean of fear and we're sinking faster

Look up that skyline
There's a bad moon rising
You may not like it
But that's the lizard you're riding
