| Fired forty rounds in the centre of town
|
| He thought to bring the world around
|
| Sleepless nights with God and Christ
|
| The New Messiah
|
| Burn the world to change the days
|
| Can be done in better ways
|
| But to make news and front page
|
| You’ve got to aim higher
|
| They didn’t build Jerusalem
|
| They didn’t find the land
|
| For reasons of security
|
| They couldn’t find the plans
|
| And we’re left standing watching from below
|
| No new songs and no new heroes
|
| Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
|
| Waiting for the day the circle’s broken
|
| Took the mic to save day
|
| The rock star’s going to have his say
|
| Interpret this in any way as if it matters
|
| Cos nothing’s black and nothing’s white
|
| Nothing appears to be quite right
|
| It’ll be this way until the day
|
| The circle’s shattered
|
| I hear an old song yesterday
|
| About a better world
|
| You know the story
|
| Well, They’re all the same
|
| The boy gets the girl
|
| And we’re left standing watching from below
|
| No new songs and no new heroes
|
| Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
|
| Waiting for the day the circle’s broken
|
| From the tips of your fingers
|
| The rest is numb
|
| You begin to feel the warmth of the sun
|
| It’s taking away been taking away
|
| All you once knew
|
| Taking it back takes all you’ve got
|
| No time to sit and watch it rot
|
| Believe it’s yours and not the lies
|
| Or all hell to you
|
| They didn’t build Jerusalem
|
| They didn’t find the land
|
| For reasons of security
|
| They couldn’t find the plans
|
| And we’re left standing watching from below
|
| No new songs and no new heroes
|
| Standing on the sidelines watching the flow
|
| Waiting for the day the circle’s broken |
