Lyrics

Fell in rows
Just like dominoes
Held the line
Just one day
Standing in
Perfect column still
Graves lined up
Across the hill
(Ah)

Pistols at dawn
Oh now you done it, baby
(Oh no)
Oh I should have figured
You always make a fuss
(Oh oh oh)
What - you're an expert?
You read about it somewhere?
(Baby, oh)
"He had it coming"
It's always something with you
(Whoo, ooh oh)

Civilized
Evil eyes
Seen so much
We've gone blind
Friendly face
In the firing squad
In the end it's nice
To know someone at a party
(Ah)

I guess I mighta
Sounded a little crazy
(Baby, oh)
I only think of things I shouldn't do
(Ooh, ooh oh)
It's like a puzzle
We sing about it sometimes
Always (oh)
Thought we were ready
Three thousand years too soon
(Whoo ooh oh)

Temporary things last forever
And nothing exists
Temporary things last forever
And nothing exists
We'll ride into the flame
If that's what it takes
We'll ride into the flame
If that's what it takes
(Breakdown)

We're not there entirely
We are free, but we're not free
See the list of silenced ones
From the grave they sing our songs
These are the things that I must do
They are not meant to upset you
Some might just not be ready for the truth

When you first met me
I was probably doing something crazy
(Baby, oh)
We're not that special
What don't you understand?
(Yeah, whoo ooh oh)
You always worry
About things that just don't matter
Always (eh oh)
Another puzzle
I'd like to solve with you
(Whoo, ooh oh)

We might like to have fun but
We will ride into the flame
If that is what it takes
Or we might never know
