The locusts are singing

The sun is red

It's gotten so late somehow

There's gonna be trouble

You know what they said

We should have been home by now

We should have been home by now



The thunder is rolling

The sky is black

It's gotten so dark somehow

There's gonna be danger

God I wish we were back

We should have been home by now

We should have been home by ... now



No matter what they tell us

No matter what they do

No matter what they teach us

What we believe is true

No matter what they call us

However they attack

No matter where they take us

We'll find our own way back

I can't deny what I believe

I can't be what I'm not

I know I'll love forever

I know ... no matter what



If only tears were laughter

If only night was day

If only prayers were answered

Then we would hear god say:

No matter what they tell you

No matter what they do

No matter what they teach you

What you believe is true

And I will keep you safe and strong

And sheltered from the storm

No matter where it's barren

A dream is being born



No matter who they follow

No matter where they lead

No matter how they judge us

I'll be everyone you need

No matter if the sun don't shine

or if the skies are blue

No matter what the ending

My life began with you

I can't deny what I believe

I can't be what I'm not

I know this love's forever

I know ... No matter what

I can't deny what I believe

I can't be what Im not

I know this love's forever

That's all that matters now

No matter what



The thunder is rolling

The sky is black

It's gotten so dark somehow

There's gonna be danger

God, I wish we were back

We should have been home by now

We should have been home by now
