"The Last Stop" lyrics - DAVE MATTHEWS BAND

Hello?
Hey, Greg, hey, I can't talk now

Silence is poetry

Fire
The Sun is well asleep
The Moon is high above
Fire grows from the East
How is this hate so deep
To lead us all so blindly killing, killing?
Fools are we
If hate's the gate to peace
This is the last stop
Raining tears

Is war the only way to peace?
Well, I don't fall for that
Raining tears

You're righteous, so righteous, so righteous
You're always so right
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead, believe that you are the chosen one
Rain tears, rain tears, rain

Oh, no
Gracious even God
Bloodied on the cross
Your sins are washed enough
A mother's cry
"Is hate so deep?
Must my baby's bones
This hungry fire feed?"
Smoke clouds roll in
Symphony of death
This is the last stop
Raining tears

Right is wrong now
Ha, shut up your big lie
Oh, and the black is white lie
You comb your hair to hide
Your lying eyes

You're righteous, so righteous, so righteous
You're always so right, oh, my
But why your lie?
Go ahead and dream
Go ahead, believe that you are the chosen one
This is the last stop

Hate is always blowing up
But I hope that we can break it down
So it's not so black and white, black and white
This is the last stop

Hate is more than showing us
I hope that we can break it down
So it's not so black and white, black and white

You're righteous, you're righteous, you're righteous
You're always so right
But there you are nailing God to a tree
And then say forgive me, forgive me
And then lie

Go ahead and dream
Go ahead and believe that you are the chosen one
Tears rain, tears rain, tears rain
This is the last stop

Hate is more than blowing up
But I hope that we can break it down
It's not so black and white, so right
I believe
