Flicker And Fail Songtext / Lyric

Took a bus to meet me in a bar in a Tuscan hill

Oh a sight I'd never seen, I believe in God still

But you wouldn't be able to stop me if I feel like running away

Wouldn't be able to stop me if I didn't want to stay



And the rain fell on the houses

And the rain fell on the trees

It fell its fiercest on the skulls of the willingly deceived

They put money in their hearts and God where their mouth is 


They put money in their hearts and God






Said he'd been sleeping lonely, spending nights under the stars

Little darling, we're all lonely, we don't all show our scars

It's my heart, and my burden, and I would never bring you down like that

My heart, my burden, I would never bring you down with me



And the rain fell on the towers and on the late swaying trees

And it hammered and it raged on us unwillingly

And the believers were forewarned, and they ran into the storm

And watched the earth's light flicker and fail

They watched the earth's light flicker and fail

Flicker and flicker and fail



They put money in their hearts and God where their mouth is


They put money in their hearts and God where their mouth is

They put money in their hearts and God where their mouth is

They put money in their hearts and God
