The Vigil Lyrics

[Verse 1: Buck Dharma]
In a purple vision (Vision...)
Many thousand years ago
I saw the silent stranger (Stranger...)
Walk the earth alone
Twenty-seven faces (Faces...)
With their eyes turned to the sky
I've got a camera (Camera...)
And an air-tight alibi

[Verse 2: Buck Dharma]
I know they're out there
We see them coming
Faster than the speed of light
They greet us in the dead of the night

[Verse 3: Buck Dharma]
(Somewhere) Someday, someone
They'll be light and sound
They'll alight on the ground on which we stand
(Somewhere) Someday, someone
Will help us to survive
They're gonna show us hell and bring us back alive

[Verse 4: Buck Dharma]
Well, I'm no poet
But I can't be fooled
The lies don't count
The whispers do
I hear the whispers on the wind
They say the earth has fallen due

[Verse 5: Buck Dharma]
We run in circles
Our days are numbered
Every night I look away
To the heavens and I pray

[Bridge]
(Come to us)
(Come to us)
(Come to us)
(Come to us)

[Outro: Buck Dharma]
Our lights are dim
Our roads are crumbling (Down...)
And we don't know what to do
We're sick and tired and dying to meet you (Meet you...)
'Cause we bit off more than we can chew
