Cage The Elephant - Lotus(2008)

[00:07.73] Woke before the morning sun
[00:09.03] I found it tucked beneath the hills
[00:11.18] I sat and watched it rise
[00:12.85] It hit the sky and burst to flames
[00:14.95] The lotus flower's
[00:16.17] Got me thinkin' 'bout the way that we live
[00:18.72] I've got this feelin'
[00:20.71] It's gonna stop
[00:22.51] Driven by religion
[00:23.64] Running backwards down a one way road
[00:26.06] A course collision, split decision
[00:28.12] Tryin' to save your soul
[00:29.72] Manifest Destiny
[00:31.03] Is just a fancy word for murder
[00:33.51] I've got this feelin'
[00:35.57] It's gonna stop
[00:37.12] A billion faces runnin' round my head
[00:41.23] All got opinions but they don't mean shit
[00:44.83] Keep droppin' bombs until the whole world's dead
[00:47.88] They said it's all been done and it's all been said
[00:52.25] They'll turn this message into a pop movement
[00:56.79] A fashion statement, call it politics
[01:00.64] You can mark my words, they'll put a spin on it
[01:03.69] They say it's all been done
[01:08.08] Look outside the box my friend
[01:09.58] Your heart's been dead since who knows when
[01:11.98] It seems we've missed the mark
[01:13.60] Lost all hope and given in
[01:15.83] Pack up the suitcase
[01:16.88] Take that handkerchief and wipe off your chin
[01:19.26] The fear that drives you
[01:21.26] Needs to be stopped
[01:24.36]
[01:54.71] Fell into a daze
[01:55.64] And found my mind was gone and laid to waste
[01:57.82] A battleground indeed
[01:59.27] Where holy wars have taken place
[02:01.51] I saw the sunset watched it travel down
[02:04.15] And tear through the ground
[02:05.68] The hate that drives us
[02:07.13] Needs to be stopped
[02:08.27]
