Messiah Ward

I hope you're sitting comfortably
I saved you the best seat in the house
Right up in the front row
Well the stars have been torn down
And the moon is locked away
The land is banked in frozen snow
You are a force of nature, dear
Your breath curls from your lips
And the trees bend down their branches
And touch you with their fingertips
They're bringing out the dead now
It's easy just to look away
They are bringing out the dead now
It's been a strange, strange day

We could navigate our position by the stars
But they've taken out the stars
Well the stars have all gone
And I'm glad you've come along
We could comprehend our condition by the moon
But they've ordered the the moon not to shine
Still, I'm glad you've come along
I was worried out of my mind
'Cause they keep bringing out the dead now
And it's easy just to look away
They're bringing out the dead
And it's been a long, strange day

You can move up a little closer
I will throw a blanket over
We can weigh all the tears up in one hand
Against the laughter in the other
We could be hanging around here for centuries
Trying to make sense of this, my dear
While the planets try to get organized
Way above the stratosphere
But they bringing out the dead, now
And it's easy if we just walk away
'Cause they keep bringing out the dead, now
And it's been a long, long day

Look away
Look away
Look away
Look away
