st. lenox - our tumultuous times lyrics

[verse 1]
i had trouble falling asleep again
i heard the warnings about a new disaster
there’s a new story ’bout deceit and corruption
there’s a very bad man in the government
kira said to me it’s the end of the world
and she’s not even joking about it

[chorus]
what do we now?
when disaster’s coming for you?
maybe pick up a megaphone, and scream and shout
tear it all down and start it all over again
just to make sense of where things went wrong
in our tumultuous times…

[verse 2]
i read the chirons on the screen today
gotta real bad feeling ‘bout the state of things
i know there’s dark clouds rising from another catastrophe
and there’s a man with a gun on loose
kira said to me there’s a new kind of terror. and
she’s says it without a hint of irony

[chorus]
what can we do now?
when the tragedy hits you?
but yell on the internet at the top of your lungs
or maybe take to the streets on a regular workday
maybe shut down the government?
i love these tumultuous times…
[verse 3]
i heard your stories from the church pews
i heard the whispers of a revolution
i heard peter tell you there’s a
new kind of demon
and he’s speaking in tongues by the water
people are talking ‘bout a miracle maker
but he can’t even save himself

[chorus]
what did you then?
when the hordes were coming for you?
maybe put on a smile then and
take the punches
love your neighbor, try to
help one another, and
pray for the destitute among us
i hate these tumultuous times…

[verse 4]
i heard your story from the congregation
i heard the rumors of a brand new order
i know john the baptist is a very good man
and he’s on the lam with a ransom
judas is a brother with a terrible secret
and he’s on the take from the government
[chorus]
what did you do then?
when your friends were turning on you?
steel your resolve and then
prepare for the worst
stiff upper lip, try to be a good person
and give up yourself to the world?
in our tumultuous times…
round these tumultuous times
