Lyrics
Darkness at the break of noon
Shadows even the silver spoon
And maybelline the child balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
Are you standing up too soon?
There is no sense in dying young
Pointed dreads lift up the skull
Suicide and martyrdom
The fool's gold mouthpiece, the hollow horn
Lay waste to those who've been born
To eat our busy bee and bone
As busy dies in the morgue
The fields are mown but unlike before
You'll discover that you'll just be one more
As a person cries, "You should've killed him"
So don't fear if you hear
That foreign sound to your ear
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
I'm only sighing
Sister Lucy words like bullets fly
'Cause you're in God's name, brother Mark
Make everything broke to a conscious spark
Flesh color cries and glow in the dark
It's easy to see without a clue
But how much is worth the stake when
Goodness hides behind its gates
But even the President of the United States
Sometimes must have to stand naked
Though the rules of the road have been lost
Just people's games you gotta dodge
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
I can make it
Advertising sounds to con you
Into thinking you're the one
But this is so infinitely done
This sacrifice never won
A mean time to find nobody knows
What's pressing you
Voice unclear
Silence is sweeping in to hear
Somebody thinks they really found you
Keep in your mind you cannot get by
To them the most astray authorities
That they could not respect in any degree
Would despise their jobs and their destinies
Make jealousy of them that are free
For the name of power could there be
Nothing more than something they have mastered
And not a single breath of criticize
Tell them how they can sense through the idolized
Then say, God bless you
Though the masters make the rules
For the wise men and the fools
I got nothing (nothing)
Nothing (nothing)
Nothing (nothing)
To live up to
Well, what is things when it's put on fire
God is in the right place choir
In the shape of silent pious
It's time to climb up that ladder
Well, I'm inside so I can hear
That noise of something's there
My present target square
Said I don't even really care
Hallelujah, all is folly
But I mean no harm
Nor put the bomb
On anyone lives in a bomb
But it's alright
It's alright
It's alright
I can fix it
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
I can fix it
Well, look at the benefit that cannot see
But the killer's pride or the guilty
It blows the mind, blows the mind, blows the mind
I said it's alright to die this time
We even are a little down too
And I'd like to be something else
So we're gonna walk upside down
Inside a handcart
And kick my legs and crash and all
Say okay, I've had enough
What else can you show me
If my thoughts they could be seen
Probably put my hands in a guillotine
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's life and life only
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's alright (it's alright)
It's life and life only
