Down On Our Knees

Down On Our Knees - Glen Hansard

Lyrics by：Glen Hansard

Composed by：Glen Hansard

Produced by：David Odlum

I hear them coming day and night I hear them drumming

They're drawing nearer coming to take over

And we'll all go down on our knees

Won't we all go down on our knees

Eventually

A new call to prayer in every town and every square

All blown to hell death to the infidel

And we'll all go down on our knees

Won't we all go down on our knees

Eventually

Death knells are tolling seven seals are broken open

The end is nigh blood streaked across the sky

And we'll all go down on our knees

Won't we all go down on our knees

Eventually

Markets collapsing damn your one begotten son

Bad imitators Holy Joes and space invaders

All go down on our knees

Won't we all go down on our knees

Eventually

I took the way open to drowning men

Drawn by the currents blown by the wind

Armed to the teeth here come the holy men

Pandemic famine war privation mass migration

Four horsemen riding knights of the apocalypse

We'll all go down on our knees

Won't we all go down on our knees

Eventually

Hijabs are burning Roe V. Wade keeps overturning

It's women's hour storm the mighty halls of power

We'll all go down on our knees

Won't we all go down on our knees

Eventually

I took the way open to drowning men

Drawn by the currents blown by the wind

Only nature rules with an iron hand

Throw your alms to heaven throw your arms 'round me

Throw your alms to heaven give and you will receive

Throw your alms to heaven throw your arms 'round me

Throw your alms to heaven die for what we believe
