IQ Harvest Of Souls Lyrics

Long before the living past
Had ripped it all apart
Something still remained until
It flashed back to the start
Where it stands, nobody saw
Behind the blackest eyes
Show them how you're stronger now
It pays to advertise wisely
Day after day
You in my head
I said some things
I shouldn't have said
For reasons unknown
That I now forget
I gave you no love
Which I now regret

What I'd give to hear again
Those everlasting songs
Why did all the accidents
Contrive to fall at once
Only day after day
You in my thoughts
I never knew
Time was so short
For once in my life
I wasn't alone
With blood on my hands
How could I have known

Used to be the great white hope
Once I walked on water
Now I barely stay afloat
Balance out of order
With every sympathy worn away
Who can I return to now?
For the time that I have left
I scan that cold horizon
Searching for a kindred soul
Someone to rely upon
We disconnected in Heaven sent
Sheltered in dead air
Heat in everywhere

The sky lights up above America
The world is lost but loves America
When the eyes of children
See the ones left standing
And the rest begin to finally understand
The hand of God defends America
And who would not defend America?

We've got light on our side
We ring pole position
So praise the Lord
And raise the ammunition high
Raise it high

Hide where you can
We will shoot you where you stand

I've walked a million miles
Upon an open road
And once in every while
Without the will to carry on
I was helping too long (?)
One location

An old familiar tale
A glory to behold
A work of genius
The greatest story ever sold
As you sign on the line
As you do what you're told
All you sell is your soul

I've been this way before
I've seen it many times
Collision on the track
The picture turning into thought
No one dares to look back
Best you start to prepare
For the harvest ahead
All you lose is yourself

I'm brought to life
With a series of shocks
I realize that you are gone from my life
And still I cling
To the fear of the dark
Don't follow them for they don't care how you are

And I'm finding
A way of being
Accepting life all alone
And I'm hoping
I'll wake up seeing
A way to live on my own

It wasn't hard
To believe in the lie
Although I've come to know it wasn't my fault
Why does the world continue to spin
While everything around me grinds to a halt

And I'm finding
A way of being
Accepting life all alone
And I'm hoping
I'll wake up seeing
A way to live on my own

Mine is a real fine line
I get harder the higher I climb
Shine like a star so bright
Anybody can see any time

No one will want to follow
This will be gone tomorrow
We enter an age of permanent doubt
Where we communicate without words
But I must be heard
So I cut through the smoke and the noise

Mine is a real fine line
It imagines it's one of a kind

Goodbye to all expression
Farewell to superstition
We enter an age of permanent doubt
Where we communicate without words

And the noise expands
As it covers the lie of the land
Shine like a star so bright
'Til we shut out the light
Put out the fire
Cut through the smoke and the noise

Lately I've been talking to myself
Been remembering, and doing little else
The road ahead
Is anything but clear
Last time around, where did we go from here?

What about some golden hours
I was alive, certainly you were wrong
Anyone can be pursuaded
Given the time, we all scream alone
What about this good for nothing
Season again, everything's come and gone
And I can't believe that I'm not watching you
I'm in a sorry state
Return to ordinary thoughts now
If you can
The words I hardly understand
Gather 'round me
While I wait
What about those coldic hours
Arming against lost intelligence
Anyone who saw me clawing there
would have known that I was normal once
Return to ordinary thoughts
Too young to take the stand
But old enough to kill
Anyone
HA!

In the days when love divided up the looks
No drastic means were use like rubber hooks
To enhance what nature scoped to have designed
No hogmortation mingling to refine
In the valley of the dollar we rejoice
For blessed is the currency of choice
And here too long is strictly for the birds
Your ghastly shlang of credit is the fad (?)

When I held myself aloft
I walked across the water
Now I barely cut across
Lives are getting shorter
And they open up another door
To a more refining ?????
For the time that I'm allowed
There's a new horizon
But a soul as cold as ice
Is nothing to rely upon

If I'm hanging onto angels' wings
Then I'm safer in the air

Do I still qualify?
Suspended from up high
No other sanctuary
Heaven

And when the eyes of children
See past the ones left standing
And the time has surely come to understand
Who we are

Slowly the fires are burning
Bearing their silent witness
And the living past
Returns to reap the Harvest of Souls
