lyrics

I hear them coming, day and night I hear them drumming
They’re drawing nearer, coming to take over
And we’ll all go down on our knees
Won’t we, all go down on our knees
Eventually

A new call to prayer in every town and every square
All blown to hell, death to the infidel
And we’ll all go down on our knees
Won’t we, all go down on our knees
Eventually

Death knells are tolling, seven seals are broken open
The end is nigh, blood streaked across the sky
And we’ll all go down on our knees
Won’t we, all go down on our knees
Eventually

Markets collapsing, damn your one begotten son,
Bad imitators, Holy Joes and space invaders
All go down on our knees
Won’t we, all go down on our knees
Eventually

I took the way open to drowning men
Drawn by the currents, blown by the wind
Armed to the teeth, here come the holy men

Pandemic, famine, war, privation, mass migration
Four horsemen riding, knights of the apocalypse
We’ll all go down on our knees
Won’t we, all go down on our knees
Eventually

Hijabs are burning, Roe V. Wade keeps overturning,
It’s women’s hour, storm the mighty halls of power
We’ll all go down on our knees
Won’t we, all go down on our knees
Eventually

I took the way open to drowning men
Drawn by the currents, blown by the wind
Only nature rules with an iron hand

Throw your alms to heaven, throw your arms ‘round me
Throw your alms to heaven, give and you will receive

Throw your alms to heaven, throw your arms ‘round me
Throw your alms to heaven, die for what we believe
