lyrics

We climbed a mountain to the sun
I saw you slowly come undone
Well I tried to...
Behind our backs we hid the gun
Golden apples one by one
We cast aside...

We heard the thunder crack
And saw what laid across the track
You cried out "Hit the deck!"
As boxcar blossomed to train-wreck...

We like angels stood to wait
Just outside the iron gate
Of the garden
We played the judge, "Hang the jury!"
We were in no mood to hurry
Or pardon...

There was no chance for turning back
We weren't prepared for the attack
You cried out "Hit the deck!"
As boxcar blossomed to train-wreck...

"Give it back!” “Fan the flame!”
Well just who's to blame?
What's the catch?
Ages cyclically turning
Five hundred years burning
And you lit the match...
Our earthly desires
We cast into the fires
They melt into new embryos...

We heard the thunder crack
The image blurred along the track
We cried out and hit the deck
As boxcar blossomed to train-wreck...
