Fall Down Trees - Shoot the Messenger Lyrics

Gabriel sat at the maker's right hand
When up from the earth came the pleadings of man
"Free us oh lord from the watcher's greedy eyes
We call upon the most high"
God turned to Gabriel trembling with rage
"Proceed against the bastards and the reprobates
Blood on blood until the end of days
And Azazael can take all the blame"
You better run Gabe
Run for your life
You better run Gabe
Run for your life
You better run Gabe
Run for your life
You better run
Daniel once dreamed of four beasts in the sea
He begged of Gabriel "what does it mean?"
"The kingdom of heaven to you will belong
With the ancient of days on the throne"
Daniel then pleaded
"How long must we wait?"
"For a time and two time and a half" replied Gabe
"Till four kingdoms rise and four kingdoms fall"
Then he left Daniel staring at the wall
You better run Gabe
Run for your life
You better run Gabe
Run for your life
You better run Gabe
Run for your life
You better run
Well I've had about as much as any mortal man can take
Wild beast and flood and famine and plague
Blood on blood until the end of days
Should I lift my hands up in praise?
Gabe I see you coming
But I've been too tired to dream
I don't need interpretation of some high and mighty scheme
Before you come at me you better put on some shoes
I've had about enough bad news
You better run Gabe
Run for your life
You better run Gabe
Run for your life
You better run Gabe
Run for your life
You better run
