Sooner or Later lyrics

Here, we burned the boats to ashes

After beaching on the shore

Looked back across the ocean

And said, "We're never going home"

But our shadows killed the flowers

Our footsteps spoiled the land

It seems we're always in the way

No matter where we choose to stand

Can we just wait 'til this is over

If we know that our precious time is running out?

Sooner or later, comes a time when we will reap what we have sown

Sooner or later, we all have to go home

Sooner or later, there's a time to face the music, face the sound

Sooner or later, we will have to go home

From the gods we all seek favor

With every sacrificial lamb

But the bodies all pile higher

And the blood just stains our hands

And soon you'll feel the panic

In your breath and in your veins

When you know there's no tomorrow

And you've realized too late

And still, we wait

While our precious time is running out

Sooner or later, comes a time when we will reap what we have sown

Sooner or later, we all have to go home

Sooner or later, there's a time to face the music, face the sound

Sooner or later we will have to go

Our precious time is running out

Are we just passengers so sick of waiting

For this final destination?

And where we all will end up, I would die to know

Die to know that place

Sooner or later, comes a time when we will reap what we have sown

Sooner or later, we all have to go home

Sooner or later, comes a time when we'll have nowhere left to run

Sooner or later, we will have to go home
