Dave Matthews Band and Dave Matthews - The Last Stop Lyrics

Fire

The sun is well asleep

The moon is high above

But fire grows from the East

And how is this

Hate so deep?

Lead us all so blindly, killing, killing

Fools are we

If hate's the gate to peace

This is the last stop.



For raining tears...



War

The only way to peace

Well, I don't fall for that

Raining tears

You're righteous, so righteous...

You're always so right

Go ahead and dream

Go ahead believe that you are the chosen one.



Raining tears...



Oh no

Gracious even God

Bloodied on the cross

Your sins are washed enough

A mother's cry:

"Is hate so deep

Must my baby's bones

This hungry fire feed?"

Smoke clouds roll in

The symphony of death

This is the last stop.



Scream

Right is wrong now

Ha, shut up you big lie

This black and white lie

You comb your hair to hide

Your lying eyes

You're righteous, so righteous...

You're always so right

But why your lie

Go ahead and dream

Go ahead believe that you are the chosen one

This is the best stop.



Here there's always blowing up

And I hope that we can break it down

So it's not so black and white

This is the last stop.



Here there's more than showing us

And I hope that we can break it down

So it's not so black and white

Black and white

You're righteous, you're righteous...

You're always so right

And there you are nailing god to a tree

And then say forgive me, forgive me

Go ahead and dream

Go ahead believe that you are the chosen one



This is the last stop...



Here there is more than growing up

And I hope that we can break it back

It's not so black and white

So right...
