QUIET COMPANY lyrics : "Everything Louder Than Everything Else"
Back when the ocean was our home
We crawled out of the sea
So eager to breathe
And we looked to the sky
And to the limits of our mind
To understand why all things die
And how we came to be
Thought we knew all we need
But it's time
To get off our knees and offer our hands
Up to the Earth
And it's time
To find where we belong
See what it's worth
And it's time
Yeah, it's time
Don't lay me down
I don't ever wanna die
I've had too good a time
I really like it here
But all those prophets promised me
That if I could just believe
An eternal life in peace
Are waiting for me
But when I go
There will probably be no
Angels singin', no harps ringin'
No pearly gates, nor devil's flames
Just
Nothing! Nothing! Nothing! Nothing!
Oh, oh wouldn't it be grand
To take some comfort in
The same ancient texts that pacify my friends?
It wouldn't change the fact that all we know
Is we come and we go
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes
And it's... time
To get off our knees and offer our hands
Up to the Earth
And it's time
To find where we belong
Know what it's worth
And it's time
Yeah, it's time!
Don't let me go
I'm not prepared
I'm so damn scared
That I'm almost there
Don't let me go
I'm not prepared
I'm so damn scared
That I'm almost... there
There
There
There
