lyrics

the bedroom lamp is swinging
and the rain falls on your bed
you sit there and promise
you'll never tease the hurricane again

the ink on the page is fading
and the dates are getting blurred.
so you can't believe the numbers
and you cannot trust the words you read, no
you cannot trust the words

twelve angry men are coming
and the girl just left
there's no time left for choices,
there's no time left to comprehend,
there's no time left

so you go swim with the mermaids
as they're swinging on the swell,
but nine o clock is coming
it's getting cold and they'll be late for work
they'll be late..

twelve angry men are coming
you got to take my word
the wild flowers of your black out year
you turned them on yourself

twelve of god's disciples
and now the girl's just gone
there's no time left for choices
there's no time left to comprehend
there's no time left at all...

just because a simple prayer
is beyond all right and wrong
enter your head, confess your sins
and let go of your soul..
