GENESIS - Cul - De - Sac lyrics

rate me

Wake up nowthis is the time you've waited for.

Far belowwhere shadows fester as they grow

An army thousands strongobsessed by right and wrong

They sense their time is coming near.

So they turn towards the light from their region of the night

Marching on and on

They near the airit won't be long.

You know you're on the way out

It's just a matter of time.

You thought you'd rule the world forever

Long live the kingand don't spare the loser.

After allyou're not what you thought you were at all.

You're just a natural factanother cul-de-sac

On nature's hard unfeeling trail.

Now all those dreams of old will be stories left untold

Cut off in your primeextinct until the end of time.

You know you're on the way out

It's just a matter of time.

You thought you'd rule the world forever

Long live the kingbut don't spare the loser now...

Now the host emergesand a shadow starts to fall.

Not one knows what hit themnone can see at all.

Even as the end approaches still they're not aware

How can you fight a foe so deadly

When you don't even know it's there?

And now that the job is almost done

Maybe some escapenonot even one.

You know they're on the way out

It's just a matter of time.

You thought you'd rule the world forever

Long live the kingand don't spare the loser.
