They say there's a wave that's coming somedaynto send all the Ferris wheels washing away.nThe seashells succumb to a watery gravenin the sands of the sunken empire.nYou've heard of a flame that's rising aroundnto burn all the brothels of Babylon down.nCollapsing the kingdoms and twisting the townsninto playgrounds of children on fire.nAnd we're just walking on by preoccupied with the fairy tale lifenthat saps the last breath from the lungs of the lonely;nLifts up the desperate then tears them down slowly.nBlessed are the blasphemous; blind are the holynwho's altars will alter the tribes as they're walking on bynThere's talk of a storm that's brewing on high.nIt won't leave a rainbow it won't leave a sky;njust mannequins frozen with fear in their eyesnwhere the shadows evade the sundials.nYou're taking a pill that's keeping you illnwhile puppeteers tell you it's making you well.nWhen Munchausen syndrome hits biblical scalesnand the snakes in the cradle all smile.nBut we're just walking on by lost on the wind as the hurricane cries.nThe song of the wrecking ball sings in the distance;ncrumbling hope in the face of resistance;nfilling the void with the ghost of existence when everything clear disappearsnas we're walking on by.nOh, where have all the angels gonenthey know not where they roam?nThey've choked on all the breadcrumbsnand erased the trail back home.nThere're bruises on the fruit again; the lights have lost their glow.nThe rats are in the cornfield where we all reap what we sow.nThey've planted a plague that grows from a seednin the unguarded garden the gardeners asleep.nThey'll spread the disease through the birds and the beesnto the innocent standing on trial.nSo line up the casualties all in a rownand carry them down where the horses won't go.nWe'll scatter the ashes with silver and goldnwhile the wolves of redemption run wild.nWhen no one's walking on by you'll pay the piper for paying no mind.nSo turn every time bomb into an alarm clock.nBlend all the colors like feathers on peacocks.nBuild up the bridges around all the roadblocksnand maybe we'll meet on the way.nSomeday when we're walking on by.
