paroles de chanson Lotus (Live from The Vic In Chicago) - Cage the Elephant

Woke before the morning sun, I found it tucked beneath the hill
I sat and watched it rise, it hit the sky and burst to flames
The lotus flowers got me thinkin' 'bout the way that we live
I got this feeling, it's gonna stop...
Driven by religion, running backwards down a one-way road
I've caused collisions, big decisions trying to save your soul
Manifest destiny is just a fancy word for murder
I got this feeling, it's gonna stop...
A billion faces running round my head
All got opinions but they don't mean shit
Keep dropping bombs until the whole world's dead
They'll say it's all been done and it's all been said
Turn this message into a pop movement
A fashion statement, call it politics
You can mark my words they'll put a spin on it
They'll say it's all been done
Look outside the box my friend, your heart's been dead since who knows when.
It seems we missed the mark, lost all hope and given in
Pack up the suitcase, take the handkerchief and wipe off your chin
The fear that drives you needs to be stopped...
A billion faces running round my head
All got opinions but they don't mean shit
Keep dropping bombs until the whole worlds dead
They'll say it's all been done and it's all been said
Turn this message into a pop movement
A fashion statement, call it politics
You can mark my words they'll put a spin on it
They'll say it's all been done
Fell into a daze and found my mind was gone and laid to waste
A battleground indeed where holy wars had taken place
I saw the sunset, watched it travel down and tear through the ground
But the hate that drives us needs to be stopped...
