Near Rockaway Lyrics

Stained glass, a crimson alter
This is the life we get
Take a look, I guarantee you'll decide this is wrong
Caught in a daze of blinding denial
"This is only in my head"
Change the subject, crack a smile
While the children all end up dead

[Chorus]
Overlooking the signs, overlooking the signs
As we all fall, one by one
I will never pretend, I will never pretend that all this shit isn't happening
God knows that this is not our fault

A little girl screams in horror
His blood trickles down her face Innocence fades out through her eyes, she's been wronged
Caught in a daze of blinding denial
"This is only in my head"
Change the subject, crack a smile
Can't you see that there is something wrong?

[Chorus]

Ride out, right now
Ride out, right now
Run away as fast as you can

The chalice is overflowing
As he drops it from his hands
The stained glass is f*cking shattered

[Chorus]

There'll be no blessing
At this confession
