Thannos - 1,000 Times Lyrics

Wheels gonna roll, streams will flow
Street lines glisten
Every new day is a stage, it's a show
And boy, I've been takin' them all

See the new kid on the block
Proud like a rainbow
Working her way to the top with a song
Knowing that death's on her door

But she said
"I've been killed a thousand times
I've been killed a thousand times
I've been killed one thousand times before"

When I'm gone
There'll be nothing left but seeds I sow
And one thousand tales that I'll have told

See now the leaves how they fall
Gold like a treasure
So why do I cry when they turn out the light?
Why, when the rain cracks the sky?

All that you need is ahead
All that you wished for
Standing in line while some leaders decide
No wonder the world is on fire

But the world's been burned a thousand times
The world's been burned a thousand times
The world's been burned one thousand times before

Still we grow
Movin' backwards is the way to go
There's one thousand things we'll never know

And when the lines are blurred
You'll find me waiting there
Resting softly in a field of bones
The fire that sanctified
Our cities will die down
I'll be wide awake and much alive

But you see
I've been dead a thousand times
I've been dead a thousand times
I've been dead one thousand times before

So kill me one more thousand times
Kill me one more thousand times
Kill me 'cause it's finally time to go

And I'll go
I am ready, I'm prepared to show
All the world how brightly I can glow
But the truth is no one wants to know
I found my true voice
Just too late
