Billy Talent - Turn Your Back lyrics
rate me<BR>
And when the clock strikes 12, tell me where you gonna be?<br>
Cleaning up the mess we've made or watching your TV?<br>
And if you have to ask, then you don't have a clue, <br>
There's snow in Arizona while they're bombing in Beirut!<br>
<br>
I hope some day...when i'm dead and gone, <br>
We learn to right...everything that's wrong,<br>
With loving hands...turn sick to strong,<br>
Our time will tell...if life goes on, on, on, on, on<br>
<br>
When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can't ignore, <br>
You run, run, away! but there's no place to hide, mate!<br>
When the days turn into night, you don't got no chance to fight,<br>
'Cause you're too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate!<br>
<br>
It just don't make no sense, there's a million mouthes to feed,<br>
We got military action over monetary need<br>
And you can turn your back, or you can plant the seed<br>
You can choose compassion over universal greed<br>
<br>
I hope some day... when i'm dead and gone, <br>
We learn to right... everything that's wrong,<br>
With loving hands... turn sick to strong,<br>
Our time will tell... if life goes on, on, on, on, on<br>
<br>
When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can't ignore,<br>
You run, run, away! but there's no place to hide, mate!<br>
When the days turn into night, you don't got no chance to fight,<br>
'Cause you're too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate!<br>
<br>
And you can turn your back, but it won't go away<br>
And you don't look scared, but you should be afraid<br>
You can shut your mouth, but you still have a say<br>
And you just don't care, for tomorrow, today<br>
<br>
And you can turn your back, but it won't go away<br>
And you don't look scared, but you should be afraid<br>
You can shut your mouth, but you still have a say<br>
And you just don't care, for tomorrow, today<br>
<br>
Well no way! way! No way, no way, no way, no way!<br>
<br>
When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can't ignore,<br>
You run, run, away! but there's no place to hide, mate!<br>
When the days turn into night, you don't got no chance to fight,<br>
'Cause you're too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate!<br>
