Desert Lyrics by Brand New

Science Fiction

2017

[Verse 1]
Last night I heard a voice that said, "This is the end"
All my nerves have been worn to the threads
I only honestly have one or two left
I got my faith, I got my family
I got a wire fence around my whole stake
If I believe only half what I read
I got a reason to be dug in deep

[Chorus]
It's revelation saying
Don't come running to me
When they're coming for you

[Verse 2]
I seen those boys kissing boys
Open-mouth in the street
But I raised my son to be a righteous man
I made it clear to him what fear of God means
I'd hold him down under Tompkins Lake
Before I ever let him go to the wolves
The path we walk is only narrow and straight
No son of mine will wander astray
Abomination

[Chorus]
Don't come running to me, when they're coming for you
(Don't come running to me, when they're coming for you)
Don't come running to me, when they're coming for you
(Don't come running to me, when they're coming for you)

[Verse 3]
Last night I heard a voice that said, “Don't give up your gun”
They keep washing right up on those shores
Man they're gathering their numbers up
Those bleeding hearts come marching down my road
Well I'll be waiting right here at my door
It's a lie to say it wouldn't be fun
If you're joining them then I got one
With your name on it

[Chorus]
Don't come running to me, when they're coming for you
(Don't come running to me, when they're coming for you)
Don't come running to me, when they're coming for you
(Don't come running to me, when they're coming for you)
Don't come running to me when they come gunning for you
(Don't come running to me, when they come gunning for you)
Don't come running to me when they're coming for you
(Don't come running to me, when they're coming for you)
God is love
