"Hammering On" lyrics

"Hammering On"

Time will repeat itself
Just like the pendulum swings
Handshakes with dark intent
See what prosper it brings

Wanna be you, I wanna be you
I wanna drip with gold days of old, I'd never work again
Wanna live on, wanna live on
I wanna meet the crest at the peak, I'd never look bellow
Wanna dig up, I wanna dig up
I wanna dig the roots, dig the soil, I wanna get it all
Wanna show the universe that I am transcending

Pray, oh, God, I want it all
Heavens burn
Hang all odds, pure Lucifer
Heavens burn
When man plays God, he kills

Wanna destroy, wanna destroy
I wanna leave a wake, justify to choose who lives or dies
Wanna move on, I wanna move on
I wanna push profits past the point of discourse
Wanna be blind, I wanna be blind
I wanna close my eyes to the truth where I cannot believe
Wanna show the universe that I am transcending

Pray, oh, Gods, I want it all
Heavens burn
Hang all odds, pure Lucifer
Heavens burn
When man plays God, he kills

The flat circle of time reveals
Our future's already lost
We must correct this deadly chain
Before our world it the cost
