Near Rockaway Lyrics - Singles - Deciding Tonight

Stained glass, a crimson alter 

This is the life we get 

Take a look, I guarantee you'll decide this is wrong 

Caught in a daze of blinding denial 

"This is only in my head" 

Change the subject, crack a smile 

While the children all end up dead 

[Chorus] 

Overlooking the signs, overlooking the signs 

As we all fall, one by one 

I will never pretend, I will never pretend that all this shit isn't happening 

God knows that this is not our fault 

A little girl screams in horror 

His blood trickles down her face 

Innocence fades out through her eyes, she's been wronged 

Caught in a daze of blinding denial 

"This is only in my head" 

Change the subject, crack a smile 

Can't you see that there is something wrong? 

[Chorus] 

Ride out, right now 

Ride out, right now 

Run away as fast as you can 

The chalice is overflowing 

As he drops it from his hands 

The stained glass is fucking shattered 

[Chorus] 

There'll be no blessing 

At this confession
