Sign of the Times

God's violence is so pure
His wrath flows
Through the pious man who always says
Just the right words

At the assembly line
We sign our names on bombs
So the burning children know
That we truly love them

So hopeless and helpless
We lie to ourselves
How could we feel good for
Anything, again

It's just a sign of the times
It's just a sign of the times
And the time is nigh

So divine, so assured
Collateral meaning is blurred
Hypocrisy made currency
To justify atrocity
The holy scroll
Takes its toll
Convenient wars
We'rе on a roll
Grab your gun
Let's have some fun
And watch thе new nightmare unfurl

So hopeless and helpless
We lie to ourselves
How could we feel good for
Anything, again

It's just a sign of the times
It's just a sign of the times
And the time is nigh
And the time is nigh
