this is a warning
for slithering sinners
and it's a calling
sent to deliver
all of the wanting
and of the needing
wanting to be free
striving to live free
you might feel your well is dry
and the sun has let you fry
but it takes more than you thought
to have your say:
where is it ending?
can it be mended?
blackening threshold
stained by the black gold
if you have a meaning
why do you keep on demeaning?
killing the grieving
is no way of thriving
when someone says this can't be forever
and begs you to consider the after
it's not in the bible
that doesn't make me a liar
CHORUS
ooh the only thing they dream of
is that they'll find the next well
ooh and i pray for justice
when the right men are rewarded
They say their faith in god
can clean their blackened blood
but if you saw it flowing
you'd never
drain the fountain
drain the fountain...
SOLO
this is a warning
a warning for sinners
and it's a calling
sent to deliver
all of the wanting
and of the needing
wanting to be free
striving to live free
CHORUS
