[Verse 1]
Hanging off the hinges
Swinging from the rafters
Torches of the lynch mob
Babbling, burning scriptures
Vicious, mindless thinkers
Pretty poison drinkers
Lonely graveyard shifters
Lacking in a lair of snow
[Chorus]
In my time of dust
I'll be waiting for the winds to come
And bring forth a brighter day
I'll be waiting for the winds to come
And blow all the darkness away
[Verse 2]
Endless aimless killers
Persuasive soul distillers
Snakes and levitators
Patience alligators
Evangelists and salesmen
Ridiculous dictators
Psychics and their background checks
[Chorus]
In my time of dust
I'll be waiting for the winds to come
And bring forth a brighter day
I'll be waiting for the winds to come
And blow all the darkness away
[Bridge]
You were in my dream last night
With your hands around my throat
I think you'd haunt me when I die
I only curse when under oath
There's a target on my chest
Swords and daggers hit the wheel
You know the world has lost interest
When circus freaks lose their appeal
[Chorus]
In my time of dust
I'll be waiting for the winds to come
And bring forth a brighter day
I'll be waiting for the winds to come
And blow all the darkness away
