1
Six o’ clock in the morning
I feel pretty good
So I dropped into the luxury of the Lords
Fighting dragons and crossing swords
With the people against the hordes who came to conquer
2
Seven o’clock in the morning
Here it comes, I taste the warning
And I’m so amazed I’m here today
Seeing things so clear this way
In the car and on my way to Stoney henge
3
I’m flying in Winchester Colonia cathedral
Sunlight pouring through the break of day
Stumbled through the door and into the chamber
There’s a lady setting flowers on a table covered lace
And a cleaner in the distance finds a cobweb on her face
And a feeling deep inside of me
Tells me this can’t be the place
4
I’m flying in Winchester Colonia cathedral
All religion has to have its day
Expressions on the face of the Savior
Made me say
“I can’t stay”
5
Open up the gates of the church and let me out of here in to you
Too many people have lied in the name of Christ our states
For anyone to heed the call
So many people have died in the name of Christ our states
That I can’t believe it all

a
Now i’m standing on the grave of a woman who died 1977
And the day she died it was a birthday
And I noticed it was mine
b
Now i’m standing on the grave of a baby who died 1974
And the day he died it was a birthday
And I noticed it was mine
c
Now I’m standing on the dying place of a man who died in 1962
And in the year he died there was a birthday
And I noticed it was mine
….
And my head didn’t know just who I was
And I went spinning back in time
And I am high upon the altar
High upon the altar, high
7
I’m flying in Colonia cathedral
It’s hard enough to drink the wine
The air inside just hangs in delusion
But given time
I’ll be fine
8
Open up the gates of the church and let me in to you
Too many people have lied in the name of our states
For anyone to heed the call
Too many people have died in the name of our states
That I can’t believe it all
9
And now I’m standing on the grave of a woman that died in 1985
And the day he she died it was a birthday
And I noticed it was mine
And my head didn’t know just who I was
And I went spinning back in time
And I am high upon the altar
High upon the altar, high
