the sun doesn t rise when the dust flies oh what a will we find humble is the sky deepest night we stand beneath it an cry out strong winds behind me please stand beside me know it begins tonight broken we keeping on riding thunder we hear before lightning repair the souls who pay the price oh it s building higher we can ignite it all in the country know every citizen might carry the bones and bury the priceless know we keep sanctified we put the pieces in line build up an edifice right they intensify but we call this home chorus cause they want to burn it down don t give them no fuel to set me on fire but they want to burn it down don t give them no wood to set me on fire too much exposed they sacrificed another compromise like the dust bowl it will take life old man you remember why you reach beneath the water line and open the flood gates wide you can believe what you like won t give the blinded sight there s no time never enough daylight rewind from the beginning til they start to fall apart new style we gonna set the fields on fire tonight chorus we hear the ghost before our time another wildfire reborn in smoke ashes arise as you digging a deeper crisis beware the ocean it won t stay frozen glorious in its size know the emotion in our eyes know that the ocean s gonna rise chorus
