Lyrics
Testament
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Procrastinating
Pretending to worry
Solving problems
By pushing them aside
Wasting time
Like we've all the time in the world
Deliberation
Instead of solution
Pan of a term
For blatant fixed
Biding time
Like we've all the time in the world
And I'm not the only one
who thinks we're trying to say
To the heavens and all who hear us
Behold all we have made
We bring destruction
We bring war without an end
And then we live in hope
That tomorrow never comes
That it never comes
We conquer paradise
Just to burn it to the ground
And we build a future
To honor paths we've left behind
We bring destruction
We bring war without an end
And then we hope
That tomorrow never comes
That it never comes
The problems get worse
Before they get better
We find excuses to divert our eyes
Let tomorrow
Deal with what we could have done
And if you think we're the future
That we build tomorrow
When was the last day without a war
We speak of quickness
That we have never been
And I'm not the only one
Who thinks we're trying to say
To the heavens and all who hear us
Behold all we have made
We bring destruction
We bring war without an end
And then we live in hope
That tomorrow never comes
That it never comes
We conquer paradise
Just to burn it to the ground
And we build a future
To honor paths we've left behind
We bring destruction
We bring war without an end
And then we hope
That tomorrow never comes
That it never comes
It's just you and me now
It's just you and me now
It's just you and me against the world (3X)
It's just you and me now
It's just you
It's just you
It's just you and me against the world
We conquer paradise
Just to burn it to the ground
And we build a future
To honor paths we've left behind
We bring destruction
We bring war without an end
And then we hope
That tomorrow never comes
That it never comes
