lyrics

WHO IS GONNA SAVE US NOW?
By Mychael John Thomas

Keep runnin’ like an old Swiss clock
Living in a land that time forgot
Then tell yourself anything you need to hear

Like Jericho the walls came down
While the unprepared were just standin’ ‘round
Look closer and you might just see it clear

CHORUS
‘Cause there ain’t no way to make it out alive
Till we rule the day and try to help the good survive
If we kill all hope till we’re lost somehow
We’ll all be wailing who is gonna save us now?

Don’t play smart while you’re actin’ dumb
Or someone’s gonna blow us all to Kingdom come
‘Cause pure evil will never negotiate

Take no prisoners drop all the bombs
Everybody dies while they’re greasin’ palms
But I’m still loving and hoping we can give up hate

CHORUS
‘Cause there ain’t no way to make it out alive
(Keep tellin’ me)
Till we rule the day and try to help the good survive
(See the best in me)
If we kill all hope till we’re lost somehow
We’ll all be wailing who is gonna save us now?

BRIDGE
Keep on livin’ We got no choice…
The end has not yet happened
Conversation can raise your voice
to a place not yet imagined

Find your courage ‘cause God ain’t dead
He’s just having trouble breathing
Controversy pollutes my head
But peace will come from within

(Acoustic Guitar Breakdown)

Recitation:

I don’t wanna live in fear…

I don’t wanna die in a nuclear war…

I want a hope for the future…

For my family…For us all

Who is gonna save us now?

God save us…God save us all…

Lord have mercy…Lord have mercy

Keep runnin’ like an old Swiss clock
Living in a land that time forgot
Then tell yourself anything you need to hear

CHORUS
‘Cause there ain’t no way to make it out alive
(Keep tellin’ me)
Till we rule the day and try to help the good survive
(Don’t keep sellin’ me)
If we kill all hope till we’re lost somehow
We’ll all be wailing who is gonna save us now?

TAG
If we kill all hope till we’re lost somehow
We’ll all be wailing who is gonna save us now?
