Give Me Time

The perilous lovers
Were singing their songs
About how the world has gone hungry,
The world has gone wrong.
But the prayers that they preached
Were so vacant, they lacked a real point.
The carnival keepers
Were feeding their dogs
As the brilliant creature,
He emerged from the barns.
The messiah is here
But he isn't quiet sure what to do.
He said
Woh oh oh oh oh.
Well i'm stranded here
Woh oh oh oh oh
Some seven nights(?), now.
Woh oh oh oh oh
Give me space and
Woh oh oh oh oh
Give me time.
Well the critics and lawyers
Were staking their claims
On a new revolution that surely would reign,
But the (?) they ackquired
Were bounded in crosses and chains.
Well the little boy searched
Throught the streets for a clue
When the stranger in shadows cried
I'm just like you
I can only love things that i see
And my glasses have broke.
He said
Woh oh oh oh oh
Well i'm stranded here
Woh oh oh oh oh
Some seven nights(?), now.
Woh oh oh oh oh
Give me space and
Give me time
Give me time
...
The daylight had broken
And everyone knew
That the words of the prophet
Had almost come true
And every news network
Was stating its own point of view.
Well the starry eyed dreamers
All broke down and cried
As their hero committed
A dark suicide
Well the cameras that caught his last words
And his last critic (?)
He said
Woh oh oh oh oh
Well i'm stranded here
Woh oh oh oh oh
Some seven nights, now.
Woh oh oh oh oh
Give me strength and
Give me time
Give me time
Give me time
...
