Come Holy Men

(album: The Monster Roars - 2022)

Ask the teacher
To work it out
Question deeper
So there's no doubt
Fools were talking
Made no sense
Just keep walking
It's your best defence

You can't run away from the silence
You can't hide the blazing sun
You can't stop the blood and the violence
There's no doubt you'll come undone

I feel the hurt
I see the crime
For what it's worth
It's undefined
We'll only get
What we deserve

Come holy men
What do you know?
What's making life complete?
Tell me again
How can you help
Poor babies on the street?
Your portrait hangs on the wall
At heaven's feet
Oh, come holy men
What do you know?
What's making your heart beat?

Soul unwrapping
Get it straight
Your feet are dragging
It won't translate
Mind and body
Fall to sleep
You should worry
Things look bleak

There's so many roads you can follow
You can't hide on rainy days
You can't mend the heartbroken sorrow
You won't fool the bird of prey

So draw a veil
What's been and gone
Just fades away
The game is up
You're lost in time
What do you say?

Come holy men
What do you know?
What's making life complete?
Tell me again
How can you help
Poor babies on the street?
Your portrait hangs on the wall
At heaven's feet
Oh, come holy men
What do you know?
What's making your heart beat?

Yeah think for yourself
Yeah we all need some help

Your portrait hangs on the wall
At heaven's feet
Oh, come holy men
What do you know?
What's making your heart beat?
